That Birthday Present

And have another skin full, put it in your eye

And if it's lying on the table, don't be so shy

And you should be afraid, and take it everywhere

Of you could have the bruises when the water's on it's way

I could be someone you hate familiar to the taste

The feather's on the blind sight and always on your case

And have another skin full, put it in your eye

So you pass it, you pass it, the ceiling's black and grey

Pushing your arms with all her weight

You pass it, you pass it, the purple rope won't tear

Why do you rest when you stare

The curtain's closed again if your lady's on parade

You take it on the call there 'cause you could have this made

Because your birthday's getting cold just wishing you would go

'Cause we could be much older if you only did what you're told

And have another skin full, put her in your eye

And if it's lying on the table, don't be so shy

So you pass it, you pass it, the ceiling's black and grey

You're pushing your arms with all her weight winning the prize for holding shame

You pass it, you pass it, the purple rope won't tear

Why do you rest when you stare

So you pass it, you pass it

No rare, take your hands off all the chairs

Will you play off all the others if you say it will be fair

Your birthday cards with no presents with your charms down by your side

Will you play off all the others

You'll go nowhere if you tiptoe slowly and you'll go nowhere
