lyrics

Im just Dandy you're the lion
Just a bed you'll never lie in
I'm the car that you arrived in,
Not the silence that you hide in

I'm the cross and you're the bones
I'm the sticks and you're the stones
I'm the straw and you're the back
And Both of us know which we lack

I'm the toy and you're the story
I get used, you get the glory
I'm the kettle your the steam
I'm the metal, you go unseen

I'm the lace and you're the bow
I'm the secrets that you stow
I'm strings and you're the hammer
I can sing but you can damper

I'm the needle you're the record
Without your grooves I'm left unheard
I'm the sand and you're the vassal
On my land you built your castle

Bridge:
Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't feel much better, you say that i'm strong, but I don't feel it matter.

Keep, keep me in your pirate chest,
In your pocket vest, for your loneliness.
Keep, keep me in your daisy page,
For my karma days, when I'm far away.

Keep, keep me in your
with a daisy chain
