Wintering

Yeah, it's just like– it should start

It just– it should just come straight in

And just be like

She walks down the stairs, feeling herself

Lookin' like she just won a court case

He's got a funny way of using the same four chords for every song he makes

And he's called Bill and he plays with words like a skill

Yeah, he's pretty great

He said his official friend died 'cause of a fish he ate

Yeah, she's called Hannah and she plays the Joanna

Grade eight but she's got no soul

John's obsessed with fat ass and he's ten years old

Oh, Dad's an Otis Redding at a wedding type guy

With the best voice you ever heard

He said, "Give me a date I can work on, my heart hurts"

I get home on the 23rd

I drive up on the 23rd

And I bumped into Julie in the co-op

She asked how the family's been

I said, "Alex is a sculptor and Olivia's been a vegan since ten

While Vin wears dresses while Debbie coalesces

In a fleece that doesn't work

And I'll be givin' my chair to my mum 'cause her back hurts"

I get home on the 23rd (yeah, the snare rim sounds good)

Yeah, I drive up on the 23rd (yeah, yeah)

Now Mum's not a fan of that line about her back

She said it makes her sound frumpy and old

I said, "Woman, you are 64 years old"

Now stop the percussion, I wanna have a discussion

And it's Christmas so this is gonna be a nightmare

I just came for the stuffin', not to argue 'bout nothin' but mark my words

I'll be home on the 23rd (yeah, the snare rim sounds good)

Yeah, I drive up on the 23rd

Oh, I come home on the 23rd (yeah)
