Not Today Lyrics by Jealous of the Birds
Jealous of the Birds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm a big bull-dyke, bodhisattva, poet, wife
Yes, I have noticed you stare
Cut my hair, wrote a novel in Times Square
Oh man, this is the life
[Pre-Refrain]
Gonna get my boots shined, hair slick, words like dewdrops
Gonna get my cup filled, sweet kicks just like that
Gonna get my salt surf, beatnik, bread and butter
Gonna get my cup filled, sweet kicks just like that
[Refrain]
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
[Verse 2]
I'm a Van Dyck queer, sipping ice-cold ginger beer
Yes, I have noticed you stare
What a cardboard box, what a pile of bolts and locks
Is the world you live in there?
[Pre-Refrain]
Gonna get my cup filled, sweet kicks just like that
[Refrain]
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
Settle for it, not today
Put up with it, not today
