Squint

from From Memory by Peter Martin

lyrics

You're quintessentially different
I've got a song that I need
To get off my backbone
I'm hoping that I'll please

After this is over, after this is done
You can hold me to my word, point a gun and watch me run.
Running chicken I'm not scared but I'm hungry
And your kicking all directions, trying to get out
I could let you leave but I'm angry
Not sure about what but I'm bound to figure it out

A squeeze I know is part of this
For the juice to be produced
All I'm asking for is a peck, a kiss
And what I'm getting is your back and I'm not fond of it, but I got...

Resilience and gasoline, strawberries and tangerines
Pack me full vitamin C
Wit by the bucket, and I could give a fuck if
You're staying or coming with, coz I got...

Everything that I need, to keep me moderately happy
It don't take much, but I'm lapping it up
Like a tired dog in the heat

And with Mylo we were in with a keeper
And that's exactly what we did
Now he seems to be a part of, absolutely everything.
