A Bigger Paper Bag by Father John Misty
Album : Pure Comedy
Released : 2017
Genre : Alternative Rock
Label : Sub Pop Records
Dance like a butterfly and drink like a fish
If you’re bent on taking demons down with only your fist
And I’ve never known anyone who could lose himself in a bigger paper bag
The weaker the signal, the sweeter the noise
Hunching over an instrument that you now employ
Like the Starvation Army needs a marching piano in the band
Are you feeling used?
I do
Oh, I was *** on the flame
Like a child with cash or a king on ***
I’ve got the world by the balls
Am I supposed to behave?
What a ***
What a con
You’re the only
One I love
It’s easy to assume that you’ve built some rapport
With a someone who only likes you for what you like yourself for
Okay, you be my mirror but remember the only a few angles I tend to prefer
I’m only here to serve
Oh, I was *** on the flame
Like a child with cash or a king on ***
I’ve got the world by the balls
Am I supposed to behave?
Oh, I was dancing ’round the flame
Like a ***-wire act with a “who, me?” face
I was living on nothing but water and cake
What a ***
What a con
You’re the only
One I love
One I love
One I love

○ ” Father John Misty ” Songs :
● “Nancy From Now On”
[Quotable]
I’m going where my body leads me
I can fend for myself
With what looks I have left
I’ll put away a few
And pretty soon I’ll be breaking things like Howard Hughes
● “The Night Josh Tillman Came To Our Apartment”
[Quotable]
We sang “Silent Night” in three parts which was fun
Till she said that she sounds just like Sarah Vaughan
I hate that soulful affectation white girls put on
Why don’t you move to the Delta?
I obliged later on when you begged me to choke ya
● “Holy ***”
[Quotable ]
Age-old gender roles
Infotainment, capital
Golden boughs and mercury
Bohemian nightmare,
Dust bowl chic
This documentary’s lost on me
Satirical news, free energy
Mobile lifestyle, loveless ***
Independence, happiness
● “Bored In The USA”
[Quotable ]
Oh, just a little bored in the USA
Save me, white Jesus
Bored in the USA
Oh, they gave me a useless education
And a subprime loan
On a craftsman home
● “Real Love Baby”
[Quotable ]
I’m in love, I’m alive
I belong to the stars and sky
Let’s forget who we are for one night
We’re not animals baby
It’s the people who lie
● “He Doesn’t Know Why “
[Quotable ]
See your rugged hands and a silver knife
Twenty dollars in your hand that you hold so tight
All the evidence of your vacant life
My brother, you were gone
● “Blue Ridge Mountains”
[ Quotable]
You’re ever welcome with me any time you like
Let’s drive to the country side, leave behind some green-eyed look-a-likes
So no one gets worried, no
● “Tiger Mountain Peasant Song”
[Quotable]
Dear shadow, alive and well
How can the body die?
You tell me everything
Anything true
