Take a walk with me on the beach
We’ll look down at our hometown from mars
We’ll find basalt, shale and sandstone, we’ll be rich
And I’ll a build a sandcastle for you, my friend
The raccoon over your desk
Watches over you when I’m not there to redden your ears
Your dirty laundry shelters me from the world
From the people of my past, and of the dark at night when I’m curled up into a ball
From my own demise, you shelter me
(Your dirty laundry, I don’t mind)
Take a walk with me
Turn your back on the lives we never had
Take your armor and your lies and your cuffs
We’ll build watch towers and chapels out of our dandruff
MMy favorite lampshade is the black one in our living room,
because it’s the same color as your eyes in the dark
Your dirty laundry is piling in my room
Your dirty laundry mixes in with mine
Your dirty laundry I don’t mind
Our dirty laundry I don’t mind (at all)
