Sparkle Me

The Buffseeds


Suzy was a winner 
At every end of year dinner 
Drinking the sea and then laughing loudly 
Her eyes were made of sequins 
They lined up just like penguins 
To flap their wings and then kiss her feet 

But you, fall on me, and watch TV 
Pass me the phone, I need a conversation 
You're feeling down, just like this town 
Your eyes they always sparkle me with love 

Alice was a poser 
The kind who'd take her clothes off 
And sit in a room full of frozen faces 
I heard she went to find God 
In the Indian sub-continent 
It's mad she had to go so far 

But you, fall on me, and watch TV 
Pass me the phone, I need a conversation 
You're feeling down, just like this town 
Your eyes they always sparkle me with love 

Now I'm no Jackanory 
But this is allegory 
We run to the world but we creep indoors 
And I know I need you more now 
To run and never turn around 
Sparkle the world with what Alice found 

And you, fall on me, and smash the TV 
Rip out the stupid phone, we need a conversation 
You feel this time, to be just mine is 
To shake the world alive
