Blue Hippo

Lyrics: Maya Hawke/Jesse Harris Music: Maya Hawke/Jesse Harris She sat on the cliff of the bed Tackled me with a plastic comb Pressed her fingers into my head Start at the blond search for the bone
She tried 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 rile
Come into my cave blue hippo into the black I’m your problem child, you're 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, your matter of fact
What a thought was in whale water Was really running through the pipes To show off her flex-ability 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, your matter of fact
Come into my cave, blue hippo into the black I’m your problem child, your matter of fact
