Clickity Clack

How do you 
How do you do 
How do you 
How do you do it 

Music make her stop pressing those strings firmly to my down 
Ground water is drying up to fill my jars again 

But then click clack clickity click click click 
Clickity clack 
Clickity clack 
I'm through having your harsh march stare down my size 
And punish what young is left in these eyes 

And how do I 
Oh how do I 
How do I 
How did I 
How can I 
How will I 
How did I 
How can I pick up and go 

'Cause I lack the wind and trees and the sunlight in the afternoon 
And my button collections need to find a home 

And that click clack clickity click click click 
Clickity clack 
Clickity clack 
I'm through having your harsh march stare down my size 
And punish what young is left in these eyes 

Oh click clack clickity click click click 
Clickity clack 
Clickity clack 

And when I turn my back 
And when I turn my back 
I'll twirl my little skirt 
And it'll be my shoes instead of yours 
My shoes instead of yours 
My shoes screaming back 
Click clack clickity click click click 
Clickity clack 
Clickity clack
