I am so tall, not nearly as small as I feel
Bigger than a butterfly, watch my wings beat
I am so tall, not nearly as small as I feel
Bigger than a butterfly, watch my wings beat

Don’t let me let you into my life
My sac, heart & mind amass into a torture device
Like a sabre of light taken, a slice of your soul stolen
That part of me is a parasite, starve it
Insist that I masturbate before we convene
The krill are digested in the aquamarine
Through the defeated school your luminescence is seen
& though my essence is clean, that ain’t the part you will see
A wife is all I wanna know, the rest can fall on a spike
I can’t remember the last time I met someone that I liked
Let alone love, plus they have to like & love me
Prospects are grim though I’m proper lovely
Helm the tales spinning, loom carbonated, Jenny
Try to pipe the art of life but the march will take many
Gonna read the rows between the worlds wobbling like jelly:
Palms torn by thorns are worth the tigers in my belly

I am so tall, not nearly as small as I feel
Bigger than a butterfly, watch my wings beat
I am so tall, not nearly as small as I feel
Bigger than a butterfly, watch my wings beat

Two words: green man, scrambled eggs, steamed hams
Bleeding hands, swollen glands, electrified stigmata
Six words: I wanna live happily ever after
One word: impossible, no words, silence
Words are what I use so one day they will abuse you
When you prove yourself unworthy their fury will bemuse you
You will not know what you’ve done
So do you like me really? Is it really worth it?
I’m named after Gerry Mulligan but do you really Carey?
I can’t express myself so must seem very ordinary
Plus I’ve got that hair & the matching carpet
Sometimes you’ll see it sticking out from my armpit
Fuck you anyway, you were always but a person
I thought you’d build a bridge, but you only stretched the fissure
I just wish these inevitable ends would come quicker
So I could go back to having nothing to live for

I am so tall, not nearly as small as I feel
Bigger than a butterfly, watch my wings beat
I am so tall, not nearly as small as I feel
Bigger than a butterfly, watch my wings beat
