lyrics

Hold it in
I would not think that much of you my friend
Strip your skin
The likes of which I’d never seen
A pale white
Translucent beam

Tribes wiped off the earth
The likes of which takes all my words
Burn like paper kindling sure
Papa was a chief
To me you’re just white bread and cheese
A maple leaf
Under my feet

Bobby was thirteen
A fifties dream
A smoothie king
A pale white tee
He couldn’t know how fear could show as hate
We liked to tease him
Behind his pilots jacket
At the lockers
After practice
Bob, I’m sorry for the pain I caused your sweet little face
I did not know

Drove out took a spin
You told me once you’d have a plane
Before your permit
I had to grin
That had to hurt
I got pushed down just like that too
You never had a clue

Bobby was a boy
He was our toy
Our only joy
Oh he annoyed us with his passions
Showed us all that we were lacking
Oh we called him lots of names
Excruciatingly we shamed him
Oh I don’t like this anymore
With his hands touched to the teepee floor
