Recent Songs: I Like Your Strange

I Like Your Strange


Every morning – the same obstacles
You know you could do better, but it’s so difficult
You want – to dance in the sun but it burns
And you want – to smile without any rain… or worse
You want to be Plain – Jane without her guns
Oh, no…

You shouldn’t turn to me if you’re yearning to change
I know you want perspective but I’m far out of range

Cause I… like your strange
Baby, I like your strange
No, I hope – you don’t ever change
Cause I… I like your strange

Every evening – the same routine
Metallic eye shadow and some Dramamine
You know – a sea of light is a windless sea
Still longing – to glitter-bomb the ball and chain
But you rather be Plain – Jane without her guns
Jane without her guns
Oh, no!

Cause you can’t un-see all these lines as a cage
The more I aim the spotlight you slip further downstage

But I… like your strange
Baby, I like your strange
And I hope – you don’t ever change
Cause I… I like your strange
