if my name is a joke i’ll just pray
that it’s practical
save tomorrow for another day
i’m on sabbatical
and i know that i ain’t no dime but
i think i’m passable
but slippin on these banana peels
is just so laughable
to process such a loss you bet feels
so gradual
tongue slips on the heart i guess
it’s irretractable
heart slips on the mind
our memories aint factual
if life ain’t what we want most times
is that practical?
I want your lovin’ baby, but it just it ain’t practical
how my heart yearns for your's but
the heart ain’t practical
so i will try to shake your hand
so i can love you practically my friend

well I don’t know how
I’m gonna say the words I gotta say
but they’re bringing me down
am i on your mind?
and will the words that i say
be frozen in time
or just trickle away?
drip drip drop
and if life imitates art, then why from my heart
may these words be hatched, but never learn to fly?
well you know my name’s an anagram for romance
i take your heart with me wherever i go
it’s a lonesome life but i’m not alone
you see - I’ve got these friends, the dogs, and the bands
and the icicle outside my bedroom window
well I’ve been searching for poetry
in the icicle outside my window
but the sun wrote it for me, cause now it’s gone
and wouldn’t you know it
I’m only aching for meaning in something I already lost
as nature runs its course
of course
well you know my name’s an anagram for romance
i take our hearts with me wherever i go
it’s a lonesome life but i’m not alone
i’ve got the friends, the dogs, and the bands
and the sun shining in through my window
