John Grant - Boy From Michigan
You want ten-minute songs about the evils of colonialism and Trump’s America? Step right this way!
Lyrics
You are calm, you are rage You were there yesterday You will be there tomorrow Nothing more left to say Unattainable, you're unattainable What have you done to my cranium? I'm so tired, will you hold me? I just want you to mold me
Daddy, you're like the ocean You're like the waves crashing on the beach that morning Daddy, you are majestic Would you betray me? Would you hurt me? You don't like what I am I have come to understand It's not like they all think
Like a monster at the skating rink I can rest when I'm with you Be myself, let you do what you do Perfect form, perfect love Perfect safety, from above Daddy, you're like the ocean You're like the waves crashing on the beach that morning Daddy, you are majestic
Would you betray me? Would you hurt me? It's no fault of yours or mine There would always come a time You deliver me to them For what I am is a sin Daddy, you're like the ocean You're like the waves crashing on the beach that morning
Daddy, you are majestic Would you betray me? Would you hurt me? Daddy, you're like the ocean You're like the waves crashing on the beach that morning Daddy, you are majestic Would you betray me? Would you hurt me?
