Coconut Skins

You can hold her hand

and show her how you cry

explain to her your weakness so she understands

and then roll over and die

You can brave decisions

before you crumble up inside

spend your time asking everyone else's permission

then run away and hide

R: Or you can sit on chimneys

put some fire up your ass

no need to know what you're doing or waiting for

but if anyone should ask

Tell them I've been licking coconut skins

and we've been hanging out

tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins

and relieve us our doubt

La la la la la la la...

Oh you can hold her eggs

but your basket has a hole

you can lie between her legs and go looking for

tell her you're searching for her soul

You can wait for ages

watch your compost turn to coal

Time is contagious

everybody's getting old

R: Or you can...

La la la la la la la...
