lyrics

You’re so photogenic, but you do terrible things to your wonderful body. The body’s a temple. You work so hard just to stay narrow. The Parisian dream is straight as an arrow. Black and white and an accent color, fashion is passion and passion is murder. You have so much. You’re blue and you’re lush. Your shoes and your clothes, your gold dust. You combust. You wonder what is up with this stuff. Why are you acting so goddamn American random?
Cold is blue and hot is red. You were an indigo child, now you’re laying in bed. And you’re kissing a twig, and drinking some gin, and talking about a dream that you had: you had found your way into a secret garden and the vines and the flowers they carried you up to a perch in the trees where flocks of birds sang and clouds of waves brought the sun down to us. Why are you acting so goddamn American random?
