i call it it
i name it it
i don't assume
i don't suppose
i call it it
indifferent it
that makes us crazed
detached and alone
efficient it
i hear you say
keeps you informed
and me in the dark
i call it it
i name away
this iron design
that keeps us apart
stop all the phonecalls. i've sealed up the door
we'll have no need for haircuts and taxes no more
drill a hole in the ceiling if we need the light
i'd suggest it if i thought, if i thought you'd put up a fight
i bite my lip
and plead with it
sans hands, sans face
and sans intercourse
i look at it
i can't resist
repeat these words
that i've said before
i wanted what we all want when we're young
i've had responsibilities enough
instead of having doubts i can't admit
let's think of them as one and call it it
