THE VOYCES: Music & Lyrics
TANGERINE
(THE VOYCES)
Tangerine and stripes of green
A polyester hero, that is I
My time has gone or yet to come
I’ll contemplate this notion til I die
And don’t tell me that this is not profound
Wake me up when you start a fire under the ass of any liar
The coffee house is where I’ll be when all of these “deep thoughts” just flow right through me
And don’t tell me that this is not profound
Room for cream so I can dream and overhear and analyze and simplify
I wrote a page and tore the page
Another worthless day is slipping by
So nothing’s right and nothing’s wrong
My heart will ache a little less with time
In tangerine and stripes of green
Confused and shy and shattering am I
