-------
no one is much and the heat of the night presses in after the winter
no one is much and I welcome the interruption, seven billion
no one is much and the numbers keep climbing
seven with one blow, buzzing buzzing I want the light off no matter what
seven with one blow, buzzing buzzing I want the light off no matter what
no one is much, you will find me far up a tree in spite of my fear
shorts under my dress of course, Mommy said so when climbing
shorts under my dress of course, Mommy said so when climbing
small small small. no one is much. but no one can talk up a storm
the noise in the quiethouse buzzing, buzzing I want the light off.
the noise in the quiethouse buzzing, buzzing I want the light off.
no one is much. the world in a tight hot clutch, surrounding
no one is much. the feathery touch compounding
no one is much. the voices drone on, flute and warble, pound bang
oh the voices, the beautiful -
no one is much. the feathery touch compounding
no one is much. the voices drone on, flute and warble, pound bang
oh the voices, the beautiful -
no one is much.
