Stephen Malkmus And The Jicks - Dragonfly Pie Lyrics

Of all my stoned digressions
Some of you take it in
To the truth
Not a spoof

You are the born expression
Of all you parents laws
Makes you pause
There's no Oz

Can't be what you ought to be
Gotta be what you want to be
Take it with pride
And like a dragonfly
Dragonfly wants a piece of pie
But he is so strung out

Shake me tonight
Because I want to go home
Shake me tonight
Because I want to go home
Shake me tonight
Because I want to go home

Curse being name after jazz songs
High school friends support
Show and tell
Preach and yell

Ghostly Iraqi inside ya
Ghostly (?) Van Gogh
No more signs
No more lying

Can't be what you ought to be
Gotta be what you want to be
Take it with pride
And like a dragonfly
Dragonfly wants a piece of pie
But he is so strung out

Shake me tonight
Because I want to go home
Shake me tonight
Because I want to go home
Shake me tonight
Because I want to go home
