A Conversation with Roger Tang

VERSE 1
he can be so wrong in my mind 
where he says what i want him to
to his detriment. so i win every argument
i'll grab an old flannel, a straw hat 
and my torn up overalls
and stuff them with hay and put them on a stake

CHORUS 
and make a scarecrow of him
call it Mr. Strawman
knock it down, while he's not around
yeah make a scarecrow of him 
call it Mr. Strawman
knock it down he won't feel a thing



VERSE 2
Mice gnaw my legs and the birds 
pull my hair to make into nests
cawing in my ear. they aren’t afraid of me after all
look what you've done to me in your mind
I’m so weak and my buttons are blind
but that's not really somebody 
that I would ever think to be

CHORUS
and make a scarecrow of me
call him Mr. Strawman
knock him down, and I won't feel a thing
yeah make a scarecrow of me 
call him Mr. Strawman
knock him down while I’m not around

BRIDGE
part of me always wants to be right
and so I make up people that can’t put up a fight
sure, they're based on someone from real live
but if it means that i don’t have to realize 
I’m wrong, i guess I’ll

CHORUS
make a scarecrow of him
call it Mr. Strawman
knock it down, while he's not around
yeah make a scarecrow of him 
call it Mr. Strawman
knock it down he won't feel a thing

Verse 1:
dress shoes flooding the city streets
they walk like salmon running
souls lie under every pair of feet
those footsteps cant be followed
interstates and brake pedals
and faces lit by tail lights
so many lives will slow the flow
of five o’clocks release to the night
it feels so strange but it's alright 

chorus:
but it still feels so strange to know
that I'm just a drop of rain in the river
I'm just a drop of rain in the river
it seems so difficult
to find me a drop of rain in this river
till cupid pulls an arrow from his quiver

Verse 2:
While I see a sea of people before me
The sea sees me as itself
of all the many sentences to read
I'm just another book upon the shelf
Like the rain my cyclical emotions
rise and fall with the weather
A dreary city on a dreary day
does every droplet feel the need to feel this way
it feels so strange but it's okay

chorus:
but it still feels so strange to know
that I'm just a drop of rain in the river
I'm just a drop of rain in the river
it seems so difficult
to find me a drop of rain in this river
till cupid pulls an arrow from his quiver

lua - bright eyes (cover)

lyrics:

i've been falling in love with you from the moment we met
it's been consistent, a constant persistence and it hasn't stopped yet
it's cold but the window is open, and we sit on the ledge
breathing in smoke
breathing in all of this moment
so i don't forget

i've been falling in love with you since september 13th
i didn't know why you were on my mind so frequently
and when you kissed me for the first time i didn't want you to leave
holding you close
holding in those three words
that could change everything

on my couch, watching tv
then you paused it, turned to see me
and you told me that you loved me
nothing was ever the same
there has never been a moment
when i wish you hadn't paused it
on my couch as we watched the office
nothing was ever the same

i've been falling in love with you since the moment we met
and i haven't stopped yet
