Daggy Man At My Best
[Verse 1]
Am I phoning it in lately?
Save it for the write back home
We collectively groan
And on and on and on
[Verse 2]
Can't get out of your pale white sneakers to leave
And you confessed to love me less
Whenever I was ever at my best
At least that's true of you inside my head
[Chorus]
Calling collect from where you are
Shook loose, the simian screw calls collect, ah
You keep forgetting who you are
Truth being, the domino lean craves respect, ah
You help define the other parts
[Verse 3]
Do I simply begin behaving
Bravely for the ones I know?
We collectively grow
And on and on and on
[Verse 4]
Ripping tickets for some three-syllable show
Where I can tell of how I felt
Together, right and acting like myself
And how it's true, I knew I'd need your help
[Chorus]
Calling collect from where you are
Shook loose, the simian screw calls collect, ah
You keep forgetting who you are
Truth being, the domino lean craves respect, ah
You help define the other parts
[Post-Chorus]
I'm aging, I'm aging
[Bridge]
I leave pursuit of the truth
With the tender youth behind
And so consumed with the muse
Something other than I, outside
And I can say, I'm happy now to be alive
[Refrain]
You help define the other parts
