[Lyric] Giant Saint Everything (Buddy Wakefield)
There were days I wanted out. But then You would go and do things like dive into the Vancouver ocean, big brilliant cliché poem that You are, water rolling off Your back as You swam toward a sunset that hung like a sacred recipe painted all the way around Your holy head. And then there were the ways You caught me moving back into my cave where the...Learn MoremiscBuddy Wakefield[Lyric] Flockprinter (Buddy Wakefield)
Flockprinting. It's an aggressive, electrostatic action Using severe heat to force finely-chopped fibers Onto patterns of fabric Ultimately resulting in soft touch.

In the end, after everything she ever went through Jean Heath's home was filled with people Who claimed to know her better than they actually did They swapped their tissues and embellished stories To appear closer to Jean Heath than they actually were In the same way wearing expensive clothes on Sunday Apparеntly, brings wealthy Baptists closer to...Learn MoremiscBuddy Wakefield[Lyric] Arizona Summers (Buddy Wakefield)
The day broke over my face like a moist ass Lucky for me, though, Arizona lines all its strip malls With pipes that emit mist so I can stay cool Because that works Don't get me wrong, I ain't complaining I mean, how awesome is it to sweat so much You don't even have to buy water All you really gotta do is take off your shirt And wring your body...Learn MoremiscBuddy Wakefield
