Oliver Twisted Lyrics - Sage Francis

Reminiscing of when I was living in fear 

Is he here yet? 

I feel sweat building on my upper back 

Children are under attack 

With every question mark 

When testing starts 

Hearts burn and stomachs knot 

Inner organs begin to morph in 

To dinnerless orphans 

Asking for more things to digest for Oliver 

But I love her 

You do? 

I guess 

What part, all of her? 

Yeah except when she tempts men 

You know those uncontrollable feelings and thoughts except them 

Now I accept when she tempts men to extend 

Plutonic handshakes and I'm all hung up on sex again 

And untrusting is she still talking to him? 

I'm hung up I used to be off the hook 

Picked up girls and read them motives like an awful book 

Put them down 

Fast but gently to maintain the grass entry level position 

Last century I had several decisions 

To make before the new millenium 

To secure finances 

As for dollars did I make a mill or any? 

Check the public record freedom of information 

Act One Scene Two Third page Fourth paragraph 

Fifth center sixth word seventh letter G 

Seems like I ain't make any 

And I'm stuck clutching on to my very last penny 

Loafer searching every crevice of the sofa 

Warning you not to get any closer 

I need some space to breathe 

And he's making me 

Shovel the snow cut the grass and rake the leaves 

Take these responsibilities and shove 'em 

These working boots weren't made for running 

Your landscaping business 

My hands are shaking hidden fists 

Holding a dead fish 

Breaking limp wrists 

And listening for lisps 

Smack speech impediments out your mouth piece 

I'm all alone in the foster home 

Killing myself with the house keys
