I Got No Strings
Wood is a woman
I guess I'd burn
Dreamt I was a real boy
I got no strings

How you say "I"
How you say "I"
I don't know
I, i, i, i, i, i, i

It helps repeating what I miss
No, it really does
I take it in my mouth
I place it on my tongue
And whirl it around
I make new words
Words that I can use

Enough alternative strategies
I want it back
"Gimme!"

That hollow
Echo sound
That vacant resonance
The hollow RE-20
Oh ecstasy!
I want to be all there is to a fire

What do you mean you don't understand?
What do you mean you don't understand?
What... do... you... mean... you don't understand?
But do you understand
Fire, fire, do you understand fire, fire

Wood is a woman
Fire walk with me
Dreamt that I was a real boy
I got no strings
Woke with the bedframe
Between my teeth

It was a beautiful song
Told them everything
I got no strings
