Today you were away from me from 2.45 'til 3.03
You’d never leave my side again, if you saw what it did to me
I will touch the ceiling when I have filled your shrine
I will not be satisfied with having you inside my life
I need some memento I can cradle in my arms at night
When I see a stuffed kitty, ideas will come to me
 
Gimme everything that you got got got

(Gallbladder, daydreams, escape plans, nail clippings
Cloud interpretations and Catholic self-abasement)

Beyond a long hallway lies a private room inside your mind
It hardly seems quite fair to me, why don’t you cut me a key?
I resent the feeling, when we breathe at different times
All human anxieties begin when we first leave home
Now we’ve gone it all alone, who will tell us where to go?
I will take the reins, dear, but I have to make them tight

Gimme everything that you got got got

(Tongue piercing, throw cushions patterned with a juggling seal
Basic crochet skills, my name alone upon your will
Ennui, tarot cards, MOT, anima
Purity of essence, finding small dogs unpleasant
Poster of La Strada, quinoa in your larder
Smattering of Italian, your total subservience)

Gimme everything that you got I want it
Gimme everything that you got I want

I want it all, I want it all, I want it, everything and more
I want it all, I want it all, I want it bodily and soul

(Pre-molar filling, afternoons spent milling
Liz Taylor glasses, pottery classes
Guilt at literary choices, conversational pauses
Absent father, mood change with the weather
I.B.S., Raleigh bike, ottoman, star sign
The plasma in your veins...gimme gimme everything)
