about

from Home Recordings, released July 12, 2020

lyrics

Take a drink from your tears
fly round to your ear
tell you a story there

tell me you never cared
tell me you never cared
tell me you never cared
tell me you never cared

Fly right in your nose
make you curl your toes
give you a big fright

I never want to fight
I never want to fight
I never want to fight
I never want to fight

You swat at the fly
You swat at the fly
You swat at the fly
my lesson learned

I got these pretty wings
don't know how to use these things
smash into window panes

Window is wet with brains
Window is wet with brains
Window is wet with brains
Window is wet with brains

Take a drink from your eye
tell me I'm a lovely guy
tell me we see eye to eye

you swat at the fly
you swat at the fly
you swat at the fly
my lesson learned

maybe i'm not a fly
