Oyster Thins

Lyrics

To you sing songs I might by sleepy bedside Say what words I'm thinking of saying But what does it matter What does If it may please you To you sing songs I might by sleepy bedside Say what words I'm thinking of saying But what does it matter What does

My voice is low, but I'd like to know what You're thinking of saying Your words just filling my ears

It's easy to sleep in the ground or the sky Singing songs If it may please you Paradise is somewhere to go when you die And take along a song Just bring one along One you can breeze through

Because it's nice Being here with you There's no need to be blue Over a few odds and ends Yes, it's paradise Just me and you When the music begins Here in Oyster Thins

She's got those bedroom eyes You know they can't be wrong Not while the sauce is steaming Sauce that salty harbor for An oyster with an easy smile When she sits in her chair then her legs uncross After throwing dinner down With the fork still in her hand Turns our thoughts to other matters On the edge of the lawn in her cashmere sweater What could be better than one last dog trick At day's end Here in Oyster Thin

One sun in a million Falling on our sleepy heads In our sleepy beds Dreams were always meant to be like these You loosened your blouse And you pulled it over your head You turned out the light And crawled into bed And fell asleep On the melody What could be better One-up letter Keep the rhythm asleep

Because it's nice Being here with you There's no need to be blue Over a few odds and ends Yes, it's paradise Just me and you When the music begins Here in Oyster Thins
