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
Back in action, the cellophane forest
The tips are green and the water sprayed,
And the trees are springing up in praise,
Here we are now shivering, quivering,
The grass is damp and the dirt is peeled,
While the kids all jump, and dance around the water wheel.
Do a jig and dance up on the sunset,
Bring it back, holler for a whippoorwill, singalong,
And dive headlong into ginger fields
Only from the womb of the dawn
Will I receive the dew from God’s mouth and be satisfied
Only from the dew from God’s mouth
Will I be satisfied
Is that how we grow,
You know where to hide and go,
When you’re here with me,
Everything’s serene
Is that where you go,
You know how to shed and glow,
Can’t you come and play with me,
I’m your figurine
Less of me, more of You
Burning down the cellophane, cellophane,
Smoke in your eyes,
mellow, mellow, mellow, mellow
do you love it’s pheromones?
The darkest hour is just before dawn
