originally by frances donnelly & performed under their projects animal magic tricks & cold seeds

lyrics

i did it again. i was the wrong girl again. now there's your hand like a soft shell held only inches away, like what they call the rare bird.
i saw the game in a glass house when I was eight. those birds force themselves upon their mate. they don't have to, they just do it anyway.
my teenage body is no good. its natural smell is too crude. she wears the perfume of mexican birds. you go to her in humble missionary with me lying there next to you.
i saw the game in a glass house when I was eight. those birds force themselves upon their mate. i didn't have to watch, but I watched anyway. across our bed, i see the game properly played. a second set of eyelids pull back and for her he shows his face, and i wonder if such a creature entered me anyway.
