living in Oakland you learned your smarts on the mean sparkling streets living in small bumpkin Dairy Queen towns in Texas I didn't learn shit so at work when I am so happy I am singing loudly and badly and damn near breaking a sweat dancing by the envelope opening machine you place a finger on your lips tell me that people are staring, wondering if I'm high or drunk and later on explain to me that no one wants to witness our giddy hysterical happiness why are we so happy why are we allowed our laughter when everybody else is bummed because they love someone and it's stagnant if not repulsive and they have to consume many margaritas or smoke a bowl to feel this good you are teaching me how to act nonchalant like love like ours happens everyday. |
