Old Hat

Call me disruptive, say I break your concentration

Familiar patterns, like the waves that break too fast

What do you do when it's so brand new that it kills you?

Came on too strong, couldn't stand it slow, and now I know

She can knock me back like a champ

Disembodied ringlets from hair that looked like yours

Call me the looming shapes of winter dusk impending

She barely fits inside my head, but I feel something

Every element but one is in my thrall

Stop traffic as I lie down in your footpath

Like a simile, I paint suggestive pictures of me and you

Disembodied ringlets from hair that looked like yours

Call me the looming shapes of winter dusk impending

Call me freaky, call me childish, call me Ishmael

Just call me back, call me back, call me back and I'll follow you around, ah!

I forget (I forget) what my friends look like (What they look like)

And they forget why they like me (And they forget why they like me)

But that's old hat (It's old hat), I'm so happy (I'm so happy)

How do you write about that?

How do you write about that?

Disembodied ringlets from hair that looked like yours

Call me the looming shapes of winter dusk impending

Disembodied ringlets from hair that looked like yours

Call me the looming shapes of winter dusk impending
