I learn my name
I write with a number two pencil
I work up to my potential
I earn my name
I come when called
I jump when you circle the cherry
I sing like a good canary
I come when called
I come, that's all
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
I clean the house
I put all your books in an order
I make up a colorful border
I clean my mouth
'Cause froth comes out
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
I write with a number two pencil
I work up to my potential
I earn my name
I come when called
I jump when you circle the cherry
I sing like a good canary
I come when called
I come, that's all
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
I clean the house
I put all your books in an order
I make up a colorful border
I clean my mouth
'Cause froth comes out
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn
Send it up on fire
Death before dawn

but its also about a man who doesn't know how to eat a girl out properly. seriously,
"I jump when you circle the CHERRY,
I SING like a good canary,
I COME when called,
I COME that's ALL."
she's sick of faking it. of singing, when he does his pathetic thing on her.
this dude needs to figure out how to get her off for real, among other things,
loves it
anyway, it's about a relationship that is so boring and its making liz some kind of mindless freak.
but i heart it.
