Grass - Animal Collective

I was walkin' on feet

Just like my father’s

My knees are trying to reach you

At your mother’s

My nose was screaming that you smelled

Like a lover

But my hands had to treat you

Like a brother

We do the dance upon the plain

And I shake your little shoulders

Push you down into the grain

And rub our noses in the night,

We do, we do.

Well I’ve been into the plants and simple treasures

And I sew patches on pants and I get pleasure

I don’t make particular plans

'Cause they don’t matter

When you keep on foolin' in bed

With my sleepin' patterns

And we dance upon the plains

And I shake your little shoulders

Push you down into the grain

And rub our noses in the night,

We do, we do.

What’s with all the changin' since the time I was aware?

It’s like the apple-eatin' people that we once were aren’t there.

Did they empty out their pockets and debase their younger faces?

And you must be sure you’re happy when you leave your summer places

Pretty little femur sittin' in my cherry dreamboat

I’d be sad if you’re rejected from my hipbone or my knee

If I sailed away from continents and touched my lover’s hair then

You’d be very happy if I touched her there

Pretty little femur sittin' in my cherry dreamboat

I’d be sad if you’re rejected from my hipbone or my knee

If I sailed away from continents and touched my lover’s hair then

You’d be very happy if I touched her there

I was very nervous how I felt in there

I was very cautious when you said «hey there»

Would you like to see me?

Often

Though you don’t need to see me Often

Because I’d like to see you, often!

Though I don’t need to see you, often!

We do the dance upon the plain

And I shake your little shoulders

Push you down into the grain

And rub our noses in the night,

We do, we do.
