Fragments Of An Island - My Little Pony

The evening before at a literary party

With warm intellectuals who

Listen to françoise hardy

Asked a poet about his summer

He said up's and down's

Cleverly transforming adverbs into nouns

And i thought it probable that

There had been more of the last

But being socially intelligent

I changed the subject fast

We had a card made of gold

Could have bought us anything

But there was no time before

We had to get up and sing

And i wished i was andrew

Bird just younger

I wished that this crush would

Last a little bit longer

And in spite of the dreadful desing

I remember fragments of an island

With a fake coastline

The next few days

During shifting weather

Enjoying the sun or hoping

It would get better

I saw two people kissing

At the funeral

They were not good-looking

But oh so beautiful

We stole three pens

And a poncho and

Got out of that tent

To go play some ping-pong

With balls from heaven sent

I wrote letters to you whenever

I could find the time

And they were touching like nothing

But far from sublime

And i wished i was andrew

Bird just younger

I wished that this crush

Would last a little bit longer

And in spite of the dreadful desing

I remember fragments of an island

With a fake coastline

There's a bridge

You have to cross

As the rain starts to pour

You're in the middle of eight

Thousand people or more

It might seem forced at first

But you get into it after a while

And then to come inside

And see a man with such style

That's when

I wished i was andrew

Bird just younger

I wished that this crush

Would last a little bit longer

And in spite of the dreadful desing

I remember fragments of an island

With a fake coastline
