Lyrics
And sometimes the ghost turns toward the home
New Bond movie confused me to my soul
She’s got a kid, does that mean she’s a no?
Longhorn statue I’m kissing both the horns
Talked with cave inside a ketamine hole
Drum dreams, girl screams, pretty knees, tangerine
A lifetime of pack work Ned the mule
Heart Ape on a hillside hugging you
Heart Ape
Heart Ape
Heart Ape
Thought I’d turned a corner start kissing both the horns
Sex in Tel Aviv, Oslo, Portland O!
Maybe spend midlife with a midwife, forget my life
Forget my life
And sometimes the goat turns toward the home
New Bond movie confused me to my soul
Heart Ape
Heart Ape
Heart Ape
