Oh Comely – Neutral Milk Hotel

Jeff Mangum

Oh comely
I will be with you when you lose your breath
Chasing the only
Meaningful memory you thought you had left
With some pretty, bright and bubbly
Terrible scene that was doing her
Thing on your chest but, oh comely
It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess
In your memory
You're drunk on your awe to me
It doesn't mean anything at all

Oh comely
All of your friends are all letting you blow
Bristling and ugly
Bursting with fruit's falling out
From the holes
Of some pretty, bright and bubbly
Friend you could need to say
Comforting things in your ear but, oh comely
There isn't such one friend that
You could find here
Standing next to me, he's only my enemy
I'll crush him with everything I own

Say what you wanna say
And hang for your hollow ways
Moving your mouth to pull out
All your miracles aimed for me

Your father made fetuses with
Flesh licking ladies
While you and your mother were
Asleep in the trailer park
Thunderous sparks from the dark
Of the stadiums the music and medicine you
Needed for comforting
So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving
And pluck all your silly strings and
Bend all your notes for me
And soft silly music is meaningful magical
The movements were beautiful
All in your ovaries
All of them milking with green fleshy flowers
While powerful pistons were
Sugary sweet machines
Smelling of semen all under the garden
Was all you were needing when
You still believed in me

Say what you wanna say
And hang for your hollow ways
Moving your mouth to pull out
All your miracles aimed for me

Do do do, do do do, do
Do do do, do do do, do
Do do do, do do do, do

I know they buried her body with others
Her sister and mother and
Five hundred families
And will she remember me fifty years later?
I wished I could save her in
Some sort of time machine
Know all your enemies
We know who our enemies are
Know all your enemies
We know who our enemies are

La la la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la la
La la la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la la
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee

Goldaline, my dear
We will fold and freeze together
Far away from here
There is sun and spring and green forever
But now we move to feel
For ourselves inside some stranger's stomach
Place your body here let your skin begin to
Blend it'self with mine

La la la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la la
La la la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la la
La la la la, la la la, la la la la
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee

"Holy shit!"
