Baby Ray


Excellent liar 
Shine like a cup of wire 
Take me out & fool me into the morning 
Sun going down 
You'll simply turn around 
& fool me into thinking this is the morning 
one last look is no last look is no last look at all 
Paint me a scene 
rooftops & plasticine 
to fool me into seeing what I've got eyes for 
excellent luck 
stained by the gray that stuck 
your fingernails can feel the trace I've no eyes for 
something gets forgotten that's what the lie's for 
take me out to steal the pink of the moon 
You can not shatter 
you deal with supple matter 
that warms to the hand 
I am not supple 
until you keep me warm 
for a couple days unshaped but displaced 
by your copper rays 
So you you see 
nothing but wires in me 
we'll take them out & shape them into the morning 
yeah, we'll lay them out & read the sign of a warning 
in the coppery liar 
plasticine veined with wire 
wake me up, we'll drink a cup in the morning 
dropping off to see me without a warning 
drop me off below the light of the moon
