PROPER
©℗ 2020-2024 by M Otis Beard. All rights reserved.
When we're out in public
and everyone can see
you're so proper
When other ears can hear
I speak respectfully
'cause you're so proper
but when you get me home
and we know that we're alone
when you lock the door
I mute the ringer on my phone
and you're my property
I never want to hurt you
but I'll play your little game
you're so proper
All I ever wanted
was for you to feel the same
you're so proper
When you get me home
and we know that we're alone
when you lock the door
I mute the ringer on my phone
and you're my property
Everything is backwards
since I found the master key
I lock you up and tie you down
and that's what sets you free
When you get me home
and we know that we're alone
when you lock the door
I mute the ringer on my phone
and you're my property
I never want to hurt you
but I'll play your little game
you're so proper
All I ever wanted
was to hear you scream my name
but you're so proper
You're my property.

Somewhere there's a perfect little place for me
I look around but I don't believe in destiny
I'm havin' fun but I'm makin' such a mess
I guess I'm lucky I'm not on the hangin' tree
I'm lucky I'm not on the hangin' tree
I'm lucky I'm not on ice
Lucky I'm not pushin' flowers up
Plan your future out really nice
and please excuse me if I fail to take my own advice
I'm havin' fun but I'm makin' such a mess
I guess I'm lucky I'm not on ice
I'm lucky I'm not on the hangin' tree
I'm lucky I'm not on ice
Lucky I'm not pushin' flowers up
Everybody I know
tries to tell me I'm free
and then they hand me their rules
about how to be me
Like a map of my life
from school to work to get married
By the time I was born
they had me already buried
You go against the tide
it gets rougher and tougher
Livin' your own life
you know you're gonna suffer
but I can't stand still
and I won't keep quiet
gonna laugh while I burn
and turn your rut to a riot
It's like freedom is some kind of test
I ain't part of your world
I'm just lucky I guess
If I accidentally straightened up
would they give me a medal or a loving cup?
I'm havin' fun 'cause I'm makin' such a mess
I guess I'm lucky I'm not pushin' flowers up
I'm lucky I'm not on the hangin' tree
I'm lucky I'm not on ice
Lucky I'm not pushin' flowers up

SHADOW
Lyrics ©2024 by M Otis Beard
Instrumental ©2024 by Felix Cortes (Felixc22)
There's no need for conversation
It's written there in your starry eyes
Am I inclined to rise to the occasion?
I never learned to apologize
And here you are with your overcompensation
a smoky mirror of Father and faith
You perpetrate these sudden revelations
I'm not inclined to take the bait
CHORUS:
Chase my shadow runnin' at the speed of light
We're so together
when you dream at night
A heart full o' dynamite
You've got a picture in your brain
but I didn't paint it there for you
and I won't be the one to blame
when they ask what happened to you
and you wield your affection
like some kind of terrorist
and it's terrifying
CHORUS
A press of a button and the beat goes on
They can hear it up and down the town
It's such a clever substitute for
love
CHORUS
There's no need for conversation
It's written in your starry eyes
