Neil Halstead Baby I Grew You A Beard
Sitting on my own girl
I’ve had time to grow a beard for you
Hiding out in cars
I’ve been tryna find a way back home to you
Thease California stars girl
They’ve been hanging out for you
Cos I know that you’ll love the man
Whose follicles are growing just for you
Could you find a job for someone
Who don’t know the first thing
I could sit on the fence
Learn self-defence
I could watch some telly
And get real smelly
Oh I don’t know
I could fight a battle
Yeah shake my rattle
I could sleep I s’pose
Get bellicose
Oh I don’t know
I could dream of rainbows
Melting ice flows
I could squeeze a melon
Commit a felon
Oh I don’t know
I could meditate
I could mediate
I could pilorise
I could plagiarize
Oh I don’t know
I could get in training
To be amazing
I could tie myself up
I could set myself free
Sitting on my own girl
I’ve had time to grow a beard for you
Hiding out in cars
I’ve been tryna find a way back home to you
Thease California stars girl
They’ve been hanging out for you
Cos I know that you’ll love the man
Whose follicles are growing just for you
