about

from the album King Oculossus

lyrics

“You're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.”
Then the agent sent me home.
“Lovely doll, lovely doll, lovely doll.
You've got to eat, you're skin and bone.”
“Be a man.
If you can.”

“Lovely doll, lovely doll, lovely doll
You're afraid to see us poor
But you're ok, the rent is paid, our bed's unmade
We don't need anything more.
It's beautiful to lay beside you.
And what we built between us here
They cannot tear down.”

“We're beautiful beautiful
We're beautiful beautiful”

But as my stomach leaves my mouth and
I shudder at your slightest touch and
It all falls down.

Can you make me beautiful?
Can you make me beautiful?
Can you make me beautiful?
Can you please make me?

Will it make me beautiful?
Will it make me beautiful?

“You're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.”
Then the agent sent me home.
