lyrics

Ahhhh!

Ahh!

I’ll build a cocoon
Out of wood pulp and vodka
Just me and Franz Kafka
Safe inside my favorite easy chair

In the comfort of a book
I’ve made myself a little nook
You can try to take a look
But you can’t see me

With a book
A book never talks back
Put on a little Bacharach (Shalala)
I’ll never fall in love again
In love again

Don’t you worry bout me
Cause I’ll be fine fine fine fine
You can leave me alone
I’ll be fine fine fine

I feel myself getting better
With every scarlet letter
I just need a cozy sweater
And a pile of books
With a due date (Shalala)
You always get it back (Shalala)
File it neatly in the stack (Shalala)
With the
Proper distance
Proper distance

Don’t you worry bout me
I’ll be fine fine fine fine
You can leave me alone
I’ll be fine fine fine
Fine fine fine fine

Ohh La La La ohh
Ohh La La La ohh
I’ll build me a house
Out of wood pulp and Malbec
Just me and John Steinbeck
I’ll never taste your sour grapes,
your sour grapes,
your sour grapes of wrath

With a book
A book doesn’t talk smack
Doesn’t tell me what I lack
And I can find what I’m looking for

A book won’t
It won’t misunderstand
I can hold it in my hands but at the
Proper distance Proper distance

Don’t you worry bout me
I’ll be fine fine fine fine
You can leave me alone
And I’ll be fine fine fine fine
Don’t you worry bout me
Cause I’ll be fine fine fine fine
You can leave me alone
I’ll be fine fine fine fine fine fine fine

Don’t you worry bout me
I’ll be fine fine fine fine
You can leave me alone
I’ll be fine fine fine
