Paper Bird - That's How It Works I lyrics

That's how it works first I put on my dress
And when the coffee's ready
I'm going downstairs with a smile
"It's no big deal, really
" I'm a good liar most of the time

I'm good at watching my back
And saying everything's fine
I'm a family person, my horoscope says
And I'm moody and selfish
Well, most of the time the phone rings
I hope it's either you or not for me
I'm not here, really, I'm out fishing
Washing my sins away

Call me when you get this
By then I won't remember anything I said
And I'll imagine how you look
Like at the other end
How you let your beard grow to shape your jaw
Wе're our own peace bеtween the wars

And what we'd do, and how we'd feel fine
Quoting Adam and Eve most of the time
Quoting Adam and Eve most of the time
Quoting Adam and Eve most of the time

And I'm right here
In the middle of everything I was
I slip into old habit's
Sometimes at night I hear the clicking
Of my claws on the floor
Before my cantion slips out the front door

And the sun shines on me
I fit into the smallest size
All bubbly and shiny and
Dolled up for paradise
All bubbly and shiny and
Dolled up for paradise
All bubbly and shiny and
Dolled up for paradise
