Chest of Drawers
STORY
Wipe that smile off your nose, put that smile on your toes.
Wipe that mud off your bones, put that mud on your big toe.
Munchin' bomb pops in the summerrrr,
Finding dog bones by the river, put it in a box and bring it back to life.
Wipe that smile off your nose, put that smile on your toes.
Wipe that mud off your bones, put that mud on your big toe.
Scooby-Doo snacks in the summerrrr,
Hopping fences through our neighbor's lawn, sneaking around anywhere we can!
Your friend said to me what she thought you said to me
And I said to you what I thought he said to you.
Wanna go outside but I’m stuck inside my lego hut
Wipe that smile off your nose, put that smile on your toes.
Wipe that mud off your bones, put that mud on your big toe.
Munchin' bomb pops in the summerrrr,
Finding dog bones by the river, put it in a box and bring it back to life.
Wipe that smile off your nose, put that smile on your toes.
Wipe that mud off your bones, put that mud on your big toe.
Munchin' bomb pops in the summerrrr,
Finding dog bones by the river, put it in a box and bring it back to life.
Wipe that smile off your nose, put that smile on your toes.

Here's a snippet from a companion zine of poetry I made while making this record. Enjoy!
LYRICS
It took me a little bit to grow old,
I find that my mold of my soul,
Is a chest of drawers to store my parts.
It took me a little bit to learn my words,
I find the mouth hold of my soul,
Is a chest of drawers to store my thoughts
Words have more control over us than we do over them,
and it gets us scared to grow our beards but don’t have styles to call them
Words have more fun fun with us than we do with them,
and it will give us chills when we grow some kids but don't have names to name them.
GOO (Growing in)
MOOSH (Mashed to the)
SLIME MOOSH
GLUE (my feelings in)
GLAM (glamped up in)
GLOBBY (until we all GUSH)
