Strawberry Hill Lyrics

Strawberry Hill lyrics

i can hear them

speaking in the next room

as they drink and
start

losing control and get louder

they wonder about me

i can hear
her

twirling the ice with her finger

she's got that

half dead look
in her eyes by now

she worries about me 



he's not like the other
boys

around here

he says nothing and sits in his

room and he's
afraid to

and he's afraid to drive a car

so sad he is 



it's
our duty

as we're respected

it's our duty

as californians

to
show him new life 



ever since my staying i've been

having bad
dreams

so stop eating cabbage and stop

talking to that girl

what
are the winters like here? 



hush up and play the piano

but have i
told you how i love her?

yes but you're aquarius

and she is
capricorn

come come now and meet

your cousins from l.a.

shut up and
leave me alone 



we know who you are

i read your palm while
you

were sleeping

and i read through your diary

and the secrets
you've been keeping

we were already aware of

and now for dinner and
maybe

tomorrow we'll have a drink

and talk this over

and in the
meantime please

think of the good things

we've done for you




it's our duty

as we're respected

it's our duty

as
californians

to show him new life
