Courtney Barnett - Small Poppies Lyrics






I stare at the lawn, it's Wednesday morning
It needs a cut but I leave it growing
All different sizes and all shades of green
Slashing it down just seems kind of mean
In a way it's a a shame you get a way
Thinking it's just a game
Who am I to deny myself a pawn for you to use?
At the end of the day it's a pain that I keep seeing your name
But I'm sure it's a bore being you

I don't know quite who I am, oh but man I am trying
I make mistakes until I get it right
An eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye
I don't agree with that, why can't we just talk nice?

Oh! The calamity, I wanna go to sleep for an eternity
Who am I to deny myself a pawn?
Oh! The humanity I wanna disappear into obscurity
But I'm sure it's a bore being you

I don't know quite who I am, oh but man I am trying
I make mistakes until I get it right
An eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye
I used to hate myself but now I think I'm alright

I don't know quite who I am, oh but man I am trying
I make mistakes until I get it right
An eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye
I dreamed I stabbed you with a coat hanger wire

    crazy how she fell off. took too long to release her second album

    y.... a....

    fell off? she's playing some of her biggest crowds yet and is performing on all the late night circuits and big fests. not sure what you mean.

    y.... a....

    Marcio Zygmunt Lol wtf are you talking about? She took 3 years, releasing a collab in the meantime last year

    y.... a....

    The only thing that fell off was my head from rocking too hard to Courtney everyday

    y.... a....

    nah the wave aint looking the same. when she dropped her debut she was everywhere

    y.... a....

    Just saw her nearly sell out the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on 10/5 and it was one of the sickest shows ever. Artists do their best when they take their time like this her third and most recent album may be her best one yet, she definitely didn't fall off lol.

  11. N.... B....

    Great performance

  12. U.... A....

    Damn I need to go listen to this album again.
