The dents get hammered out
D
Then we'll travel through time
[VERSE 2]
G C

Bring your sight seers, school teachers down

Bring your candy taster, time wasters around
D
And we'll fuck with their minds
[VERSE 4]
G
The world composes with his
C
Shirt tails wrinkled hanging out
Em D
Bang us together see what sort
Of sounds we make right now

Playing skin on teeth inside of the mouth
D
What sort of sounds?
What lovely sounds come about

All the ghosts of trees are coming out
Don't the open the directions

Wait until the light's inside of the cloud

Don't bring your camera around
Em D
Watch sun and sawdust align
