Bartholemew Lyrics - Singles - Adam Green

Bartholemew bring me a fork 

There's a Minstrel Parade on TV 

Let the lights glow, an excellent reason 

To stay home tonight 

Oh, the old men wave their canes 

They have yesterday's brains 

And their worlds stop turning on sundays 

The young lives are clipped 

And smudged on the rocks 

Distorted and forgotten 

Quietly she enters the room 

But we can't talk, we can not be seen 

Returning her new pair of jeans 

Just to stay home tonight 

Oh, the mirror always shows 

There's a stranger in my clothes 

Standing on the third rail 

Lost at sea, searching for me 

And we don't know how to sail 

So if you go to guitar the store 

You will see me again holding the door 

It's an excellent night to sleep on the floor 

If you stay home tonight 

Oh, I saw you before in the guitar store 

I was lonely, lazy and useless 

And Bartholemew moans to the counterfeit clones 

When he feels like he's not a human
