lyrics

Chord progression: G with the D string moving up
C Cmin

Somewhere in your brain you have a conception of perfect.
Somewhere in my head, a small stone is being thrown
against a glass house, built up by a glass mouse
A family of
five too scared to break out of the patterns they inhabit
Four who are content with given fabric that they work with
In a glass town, governed by a glass clown
And then there’s
three who move the money and there’s two who do some moving
One who is the mouse who is a clown and also losing
In her glass world, sails are coming unfurled
Oh god
She’s always been afraid of being seen as a stone
But the skin is getting thicker and the home is growing cold
Mouses need a place to live, forecasts say thunder’s coming
Hail here, lightning there, send all of those mouses running

C Cmin
Watch, and see
G D E
A lesson in the nature of menagerie

The stone mouse is throwing her body on the wall
The stone mouse is throwing her body on the wall
The stone mouse is throwing her body on the wall
The stone mouse is throwing her body on the wall
