Story behind the song
i saw a blue book and it went from there. rousseau has a lot to do with this.
Lyrics
Blue book lying on top my head “That’s not a book” she said “but a block of lead” -"Well, that doesn’t make sense Just like that empty can you say is your friend Or that man who stands right next to you and you hold his hand as he lies Just like this book on my head". -“What’s that mouse doing at your feet?” I say, “It’s nothing but an elephant in disguise.” I ask, “How do those apple pie dreams taste?” She said, “They taste just like you 5 years ago acting fresh from the womb.” I look at the water and it shines, I’m all bright. "You think life could be clear if life had more than two drops in a glass? It’s only best” “It’s only liquid” she says -"But it has the same properties And it’s all in me So why can’t I be like that? And after all it’s so clear Why can’t you be like that? Aren’t you mostly that? Why can’t you act like that?" -"I kind of act like that". "I’m sorry you 'act' like that". If I lace my boots with a zipper would you like me more? If I comb my hair with the words of rebel, would you like me more? If I shaped my views with a few tunes that are distant known would you like me more? If my hair was brown and my eyes were big and my nose did most of the singing, would you like me more? If my eyes were tight and my lips were shut my hands were bound and my feet were put, would you like more?
