The Present Tense Tureen - Moxy Fruvous[00:00:01]
Circumstances eat themselves[00:00:04]
The present tense has been[00:00:08]
Fill the fancy bowl up[00:00:12]
At the present tense tureen[00:00:15]
I once had a girl[00:00:19]
She lived in the past[00:00:21]
It was clear[00:00:23]
That relationship wouldn't last[00:00:24]
It was clear from[00:00:27]
The way she had to sleep south[00:00:27]
It was clear from[00:00:31]
The lines around her mouth[00:00:32]
So I went for a walk in the ravine[00:00:35]
I came upon an unbelievable scene[00:00:39]
In a tiny creek there's a tiny boat[00:00:43]
With a tiny man in a tiny coat[00:00:47]
I said[00:00:51]
Hey man do you think you can help[00:00:52]
He said Of course I can[00:00:55]
I'm an elf[00:00:57]
We're not just fictional device[00:00:59]
We sail ravines and give advice[00:01:03]
I said My baby is what it's about[00:01:07]
He cried Helms a lee boy[00:01:11]
I'm comin' about[00:01:14]
Don't fill me in on right or wrong[00:01:15]
Take these ropes and sing this song[00:01:19]
Circumstances eat themselves[00:01:27]
The present tense has been[00:01:30]
Fill the fancy bowl up[00:01:35]
At the present tense tureen[00:01:38]
His eyes were afire[00:01:44]
He lit up a coal[00:01:46]
Handed me a ladle[00:01:48]
And a little white bowl[00:01:49]
Put the pot on the fire[00:01:50]
He opened a book[00:01:54]
And said sit down[00:01:56]
The thing's gotta cook[00:01:57]
That's the loveliest pot[00:01:59]
I've ever seen[00:02:02]
He said it's not a pot it's a tureen[00:02:03]
And what's inside will make you well[00:02:08]
So ring this little dinner bell[00:02:12]
Then he giggled in french[00:02:15]
That's what he did[00:02:18]
Like a kid at Christmas[00:02:19]
As he opened the lid[00:02:21]
Help yourself he beamed with pride[00:02:24]
But there was no sweet soup inside[00:02:28]
Silence fell on the cooling night[00:02:34]
I thought I better fake[00:02:38]
It just to be polite[00:02:39]
Smallest friend biggest moon[00:02:46]
Empty bowl empty spoon[00:02:50]
Circumstances eat themselves[00:02:57]
The present tense has been[00:03:01]
Fill the fancy bowl up[00:03:05]
At the present tense tureen[00:03:08]
Circumstances eat themselves[00:03:13]
The present tense has been[00:03:18]
Fill the fancy bowl up[00:03:21]
At the present tense tureen[00:03:24]
