Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah, all those stars drip down like butter
And promises are sweet
We hold out our pans with our hands to catch them
We eat them up, drink them up, up, up, up
[Verse 2]
Hey
Let me in
Hey
Let me in
[Verse 3]
I only wish that I could hear you whisper down
Mr. Fisher moved to a less peculiar ground
Gathered up his loved ones and he brought them all around
To say goodbye, nice try
[Verse 4]
Hey
Let me in
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey
Let me in
Let me in
[Verse 5]
I had a mind to try and stop you
Let me in, let me in
And I've got tar on my feet and I can't see all
The birds look down and laugh at me
Clumsy, crawlin' out of my skin
[Verse 6]
Hey
Let me in
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey
Let me in
Hey
Let me in
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey
Let me in
