Avocado Baby

When you came around
And offered nothing new,
Nothing old,
Nothing I could use.

I wondered when did you
Give up on the way
We spent our spring days
Constantly talking
Finding our voices amazing.

You called me over,
Though I drive you crazy.

My eye's still as strong as the avocado, baby.
Though my hands start shaking in the second I awaken;
I am soft, and still, and lazy
And my tongue is on the run
And it's only just begun...
Did you ever see a good joke turn so sour?
My tongue is on the run
And it's having so much fun...
I'm growing younger by the hour.

I should wait until the spring,
Wait until the spring,
But my carpet is crawling with crocodiles
And a dozen porcupines point their needles in my thumb.

Now, tippy Tina tippy-toes into the picture
With a rolling thumb and finger...
Tippy Tina tippy-toes into the picture
With a rolling thumb and finger figure...

You called me over,
Though I drive you crazy.

My eye's still as strong as the avocado, baby.
Though my hands start shaking in the second I awaken;
I am soft, and still, and lazy
And my tongue is on the run
And it's only just begun...
Did you ever see a good joke turn so sour?
My tongue is on the run
And it's having so much fun...
I'm growing younger by the hour.
