Did You See the Words?

Animal Collective · Feels [2005]

Have you seen them?

The words cut open

Your poor intestines

Can't deny

When the inky periods drip from your mailbox and

Blood flies, dip and glide, reach down inside

Grab inside

There's something living in these lines



And when your newest kisser is peeking

You dress yourself up tonight

Get all tangled up in arms and legs, it's cramped up and

Someone grabs a hold, do you go oh oh oh!?

Should you go home?

Theres something starting, don't know why



And in a house so cozy

Few words are spoken

Let's take our shoes off and unwind

When there's minuets off in the background drowning out

Eyes off, ears off, test the kiss goodnight

A kiss goodnight

Dont keep my loving on my mind



Because its messy, yes, this mess is mine

Though mine is messy, yours is maybe nine



Look we've had similar stitches

Look we have similar frowns

Do the elderly couples still

Kiss and hug and

Grab their big wrinkly skin, so tough, wrinkly wrink, wrink wrinkly rough?



Did you see the words you know

Give me rabies, hand me babies at the hospital

Violent ends with friends that go

I kissed a few in sticky shoes our cartoon show is broken
