Who hasn't wished they had the confidence of Frida?
Gallivanting 'round and singing songs and dancing down
That's not her name, I know
I know she wants me to be brave
I kissed her because she kissed me—oh that girl Frida!
Half-drunk but sweet—oh sure, she's heard that one before
And yet she's here right now
Right now; I'll mess this all up somehow
How can I compete?
She makes no sound on tattooed feet
I'm just a snail to her I think; one of three who can give her what she needs
How can I compete?
She's made of diamonds when she sleeps
I'm just an isle—stiff and slow; but I think I can give her what she needs
Little moments: knocking heads, tugged hair for Frida!
Why ever would she want a tall white boy like me?
I ran with her in the cold
In the cold: a goofy chase and tired race
And now I sleep: my lips are sore from stuff with Frida!
Can I see her again on Monday, Tuesday, or Halloween?
I'll see her soon I hope
I hope she won't forget me in the morning
How can I compete?
She makes no sound on tattooed feet
I'm just a snail to her I think; one of three who can give her what she needs
How can I compete?
She's made of diamonds when she sleeps
I'm just an isle—stiff and slow; but I think I can give her what she needs
God, am I too sweet?
The future sprawls when our eyes meet
I wanna love her, head and toe, but this happens with everyone I meet
How can I compete?
She bathes with angels in the heat
Am I too earthbound for her taste? One of three who can give her what she needs
