There's a Genius in You, Teddy Bear

from Buh​-​Bye by Lonely Deer

lyrics

There’s a genius in you, Teddy Bear.
Your rubies lips, your lemon hair.
Your button eyes that I've excised with scissors
from your tiny face.
I kept them in a cluttered drawer by my cigarettes and paste.

There’s a mystery in your wrap of fur,
the haunted past, the beast’s allure.
You looked so warm, you looked so proud,
acting like you’re royalty.
I saw you trip upon the stair and cry about your wounded knee.
Like you only have so much skin,
you cried about your wounded knee.

There is fingers in everything. You cannot deny...

There’s a fragrance to you, Teddy Bear.
A human hand, a ripened pear.
Your plastic boots that hold no smell,
how they beat against my skin.
I hold you in my aging hand and drop you down into the trash.
Feeling like I should be sad, I drop you down into the trash.

There is fingers in everything.
