Les Savy Fav – Crawling Can Be Beautiful Lyrics 18 years ago
I was a member of a su-succescful society.
there was a su-succesfull someone insa-side of me
but then it turned around
and inside out
and upside down.
they trapped an wrapped and packed me, shipped me, shifty out of town.

crawling can be beautiful
it sure beats standing still
crawling on your hands and knees
takes self-control and skill.

can we declare, though scared,
this room to be a sovereign state?
where all the citizens share skins,
and sins and copulate:
'cause if we can I think we should
and shouldn't waste our breath.
a baby place is faced
with settling on baby steps.

People party people party, party here with me.
cause the party people's party
puts the fear in me.
let loose, let loose, let loose, here with me.
cause suits suit suits
but the noose suits thee.

crawling can be beautiful
it sure beats standing still
crawling on your hands and knees
can be a show of will.

who here finds this world distracting?
who here finds this world a bore?
who here thinks we're all play acting
and that the show's piss poor?
I for one am dazzled,
I don't care if dazzled blind,
rapt, enraptured, captured
by every little thing I find.
