Aviary Lyrics

Kiss me now and say you'll be sweet like this to anybody
Even the drunks on the street seem to have poems
They need to tell you
And me, I swore off long ago listening
When the moon's like this
To people who seem to have half an idea of what they know

Stop getting sentimental
This is just a one-night stand
In a fancy restaurant, got you thinking
You own things you cannot

In fact I don't know you
In fact you could be dangerous Should I be calling the maîitre d'?
Who assumes you are close to me

So close I would put you in my will
Well I'm a benefactor ubiquitous

With no possessions to leave
Save my sewing machine and a taste for the kill

So kiss me now and say you'll be sweet like this to anybody
So I can get on this flight, a baggageless lady
Back to a borrowed country
Whose postcards boast beautiful birds
An aviary for getaway experts
