~Sweet Potato, Serenade~








She cooks you sweet potato, you don't like aubergine
She knows to boil the kettle when you hum bars from Grease
She senses you are lonely but still she can't be sure
And so she stands and waits, stands anticipating your thoughts


How can she become the psychic
That she longs to be to understand you
How can she become the psychic
That she longs to be to understand you


He brushes thoroughly
He know she likes fresh breath
He rushes to the station
He waits atop the steps
He's brought with him a Mars bar
She will not buy Nestle
And later he'll perform
A love lorn serenade, a trade


How can he become the psychic
That he longs to be to understand you
How can he become the psychic
That he longs to be to understand you


So give her information to help her fill the holes
Give an ounce of power so he does not feel controlled

Help her to acknowledge the pain that you are in

Give to him a glimpse of that beneath your skin~
