Intro: Drumbeats
Verse 1:
Youâre the tick I
found at summerâs
end Crawling around
the back of my neck
I thought you were
a sun spot Iâd have
memories of But youâve
embedded yourself and
youâre sucking my blood
Refrain 1:
I wish I was the kind
of girl who sat in
cafes mid day Smiling
with all my teeth showing
Chorus 1:
Maybe Iâm just
a parrot on your
shoulder Maybe
Iâll be your next
favorite placeholder
or maybe Iâll
just shine
Verse 2:
Like fog thatâs
grazing mountain
tops You barely
even touched my
arms And I knew
I wasnât your girl
And I knew that
you werenât my girl
Refrain 2:
And I wish I was
the kind of girl
who danced and
played these games
Smiling with all
my teeth showing
Chorus 2:
Maybe Iâm just
a parrot on your
shoulder Maybe
Iâll be your next
favorite placeholder
or maybe Iâll
Bridge:
And Iâve been
practicing my
party tricks
Moving the knife
between my fingers
While I make my
friends all nervous
Moving it faster
and faster all
the while hoping
that I miss
Refrain 3:
And I know that
Iâm the kind of
girl whose fire
cannot be smothered
The kind who
would meet their
God my Mother
Chorus 3:
Maybe Iâm just
a parrot on your
shoulder Maybe
Iâll be your next
favorite placeholder
but maybe Iâll
E(hold)
just shine
