Matty Frank - Fabulist Lyrics

Under deciduous sight
Gingerly lit, almost night
The last of the crows take their flight
They know better than to stay here

16 shades of skin
Lead the trespasser in
His suit and his tie are drenched
He could not predict this heat

Oh
Cancer cell has no place
Metastasize and prune it away
With the sharpest crabgrass blade
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Oh
Cancer cell has no place
Metastasize and prune it away
For the good of the shine and the shade
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Into a circle of sand he stands
In front of the first tree of this land
And goes to speak
But they restrain his plans and body
With the eyes under their wings

Say
All you do is say
When will you
Listen

Say
All you do is say
When will you
Listen

Oh
Cancer cell has no place
Metastasize and prune it away
With the sharpest of crabgrass blade
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Oh
Respectful flick of the hand
A puddle where once was a man
His white collar perched in the sand
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Flourishing cape of a moth
Council and criminal gone
Something new grows in his stead
And the foxgloves gain a friend
