Joe
Armadillo
I was hiding from my father
Cos this heat just gets me down
And fixed dates just spin me out and round
And when the kids are loud and restless
When I'm stuttering through lessons
And panicking through doubt

I'm an armadillo, baby
I'm a hardened ball of fluff
And I cannot talk to myself
My love is never good enough
For you smiling in the kitchen
For your spicy eggs and onions
For your plans to get us up and out of here

I was lying to my old friends
I was telling them that I'm okay
But I'll see you for the next D&D game
And I’m lying in my bedroom
And the plants just need some water
But I cannot even move to feed myself

I'm an armadillo, baby
I'm a hardеned ball of fluff
And I cannot talk to myself
My love is nеver good enough
For you smiling in the kitchen
For your spicy eggs and onions
For your plans to get us up and out of here
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
But now the term is dying down
And I still want you around
So let's sneak into the park
And run rings around this town
And hold hands in our friends kitchen
And I'll text my dad tomorrow
To make plans for
Our very own
Father’s day!!
