Ball Park Music – Great Display Of Patience lyrics

[Verse 1]
Shandies pour in the river towns
To cleanse your body when you're down
But my fur coat fans are in dismay
I pen pal poke them every day
But the helmet crushed my real desire
To be on wheels and move, move, move
Into a galaxy of summer's mould
Congratulate me when I've sold out

[Verse 2]
My bank account has eyes and thoughts
It's got sex appeal and files reports
It's holding close and changing hands
It does this sneaky while it can
But shells wash up on ancient shores
And curve their math beneath your doors
Into your sheets and skin our gold
And I'm just doing what I'm told

[Chorus]
And you're mine now, you're mine now
Oh, and I waited a long time
Waited a long time, waited a long time
But you're mine, mine, mine, oh

[Verse 3]
And I'll damn you if this paper trail
Consumes my boots and pulls my tail
'Cause I'm an upset dog, a fresh neglect
The weeks keep clicking by unchecked
And the ocean swells and fills the room
A somersault inside a womb

[Chorus]
And she's mine now, you're mine now
Oh, and I waited a long time
Waited a long time, waited a long time
But you're mine, mine, mine, oh

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Oh, and I waited a long time
Waited a long time, waited a long time
But you're mine, mine, mine, oh
