Paper Towel Lyrics - 430 N. Harper Ave. - Jude

I'm not immune so I commune 

With the objects in my home 

I am caressed by my razor 

And so am not alone 

I spoon an oversize pillow 

Which I bought for just that use 

And to the flowers in my garden 

I am lover, not recluse 

If you my dear were such a flower 

You would stay and only grow 

And I would tend to you and water baby 

And straight up would you go 

You would spread and maybe blossom 

With each passing summer's day 

And not the suitors from a hundred hives 

Could draw your love away 

Then as autumn 

Shut the light down in advance of winter's bite 

According to true lovers' creed you would not die 

But go to seed 

For so it is with paper towels 

And other things about my place 

The old begets the new 

And the things I need keep up to pace 

But you, my dear, you're gone forever 

You left no silly seed behind 

Save a rotten pit it lingers 

Cherry (tomb)stone in my mind 

You're not a paper towel 

No 

You're like the wind go howling 

Ooo 

You fled as if the autumn greys 

Were the heralds of final days 

Uprooting with your seeds and all cruel harvest 

Of love's first fall 

You're not a paper towel 

No no 

You're like the wind go howling 

Owoooooo 

Can't wrap you around my dowel 

No no 

You're like the wind go howling 

Owoooooo 

Bring her back for me little bo peep 

I gotta find her I can't go to sleep ...
