Wallflowers - Sugarfoot lyrics

Album: The Wallflowers (1992)

Sugarfoot´s got two hands
Just as long as he can see
One hand in the birdfeed
And a hand in the apple tree

Stands in line just a little behind
The yellow moon that hangs
He has all tangled & he broke his sticks on the links
Of his own chain gang.

You ought to see this home that he owns,
It is like a box of jewelry
He has got his own church bell
And his bed, it lays in a gallery.

And all the colors they shine like flames
Comin´ in through the window pane,
(They) end up gettin´ checked over twice
For the reds of someone has veins.

So cold & blown all apart,
So cold & needin´ of a heart.
He stands alone on top of his home
Where all the bluebirds flown
Sucks in on his cheeks & he cries
As he moans through the saxophone

Reaches high with his hands in the sky
Puts his fingers right into the storm
Always one to stand under the moon
And blow on his own horn.

Yea / Yet anyone with anything
Has already begun to think
That somebody down there knows
Just how he sat down on his knees in the dirt,
Buried someone has rainbow.

So cold & blown all apart,
So cold & needin´ of a heart.
So cold & blown all apart,
So cold & needin´ of a heart.

Well I know you aint my enemy
The only one has inside of me
He has killin´ me getting free
I hear he wants my head with an old ice pick
And fix me up on a stick.

And all I have ever have got to be
is anything I want to be
(Well) Sugarfoot disagrees
He still stands tall underneath that apple tree,
Man, he has still watchin´ me.

His chain-gang is tryin´a pull me down
Just like the birds & the fireflies
They shoot arrows up into the sky
And they burn all the feathers dry.

He only wants to fill his belly up
With rocks ´until it hurts, then he stops
He don´t know what to do with love
If it don´t fill his belly to the top.

So cold & blown all apart,
So cold & needin´ of a heart.
So cold & blown all apart,
So cold & needin´ of a heart.
