Lyrics for Butterflies by Toad The Wet Sprocket:
| | | Artist: | Toad The Wet Sprocket |
| | Album: | Fear | | Track: | Butterflies | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 60 | | | | Lyrics: | spoken]We saw something gigantic floating on the water
I asked my dad what it was
But he
wouldn't tell me anything
In time I will collect the world
The eggs (I love) and
wings (the wings)
Of butterflies
A man drove up in an ugly car
And he flashed
his lights at everything he saw
And his eyes were red and his stereo was
So loud you
couldn't hear the engine's roar
He yelled at everybody in the road
And did not notice all
the moths he'd massacred
Spread across the open road
[spoken]His skin flashed open,
and all of a sudden there it was,
And I still couldn't tell
And you know when you get so
close to something that big
You can't see anything at all
In time I will collect the
world You who fall on calvary
The eggs (I give) and wings (my children) Had you wings
of
Butterflies
A moth had settled upon his arm and he looked at it with a lazy
eye
And he lifted up a gigantic hand and he
Spread his fingers towards the sky
He
nudged the moth to make it fly away
But moths are fragile things and
He just wiped its
body (x3)
Down across his shoulder blade
He's a wonder, he's a little black-wing
boy
Oh, my daughters, he'll fill you with joy
In time I will collect the world You
who soar o'er calvary
The hearts (Oh father) and limbs (I offer) of Had you wings
of
