Folding Chair

Regina Spektor - Folding Chair








Come and open up your folding chair next to me

My feet are buried in the sand and there's a breeze

There's a shadow

You can't see my eyes

And the sea is just a wetter version of the skies



Let's get a silver bullet trailer and have a baby boy,

I'll safety pin his clothes all cool and you'll graffiti up his toys

I've got a perfect body, but sometimes I forget

I've got a perfect body, 'cause my eyelashes catch my sweat

yes they do

They do



Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh



Now I've been sitting on this abandoned beach for years

Waiting for the salty water to cover up my ears

But every time the tide come in to take me home

I get scared NOW I'm sitting here alone

Dreaming of the dolphin song



Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh



Maybe one day you'll understand

That I want nothing from you but to sweetly hold your hand

Till that day just please don't be so down

Don't make frowns, you silly clown



Just come and open up your folding chair next to me

My feet are buried in the sand and there's a breeze

There's a shadow

You can't see my eyes

And the sea is just a frothier version of the skies



There's a shadow, you can't see my eyes

There's a shadow, you can't see my eyes
