Blue Hippo

She sat on the cliff of the bed

Tackled me with a plastic comb

Pressed her fingers into my head

Start at the blonde, search for the bone

She tries to tame me, her nails and my knots

Bathe with the sandman, dress up for what's not

Let me tangle, let me dry

Want it wicked, let me ride

Come into my cave

Blue hippo into the black

I'm your problem child

Your matter of fact

I slyly side step, sorry

Drag my heels across the street

She tells me I'm unlettered while

I read the backs of her knees

Catch me in habits one tight skyward eye

Pull hats out of rabbits and salt out of the sky

Let me tangle, let me try

Want it wicked, let me rile

Come into my cave

Blue hippo into the black

I'm your problem child (Problem)

Your matter of fact

What a thought was in whale water

Was really here runnin' through the pipes

To show off her flexibility

She made a fool of my fight

I bit her belly, she bellowed like a swan

Cured me like a petal, pressed in her open palm

Let me tangle, let me try

Want it wicked, let me rile

Come into my cave

Blue hippo into the black

I'm your problem child (Problem)

Your matter of fact

Come into my cave

Blue hippo into the black

I'm your problem child (Problem)

Your matter of fact
