Puberty
written by Gail Greenwood & Tanya Donelly

.

Covered in honey
Showered in beer
Now when you spin on your head like a monkey
I won't see you
Sing a bad love song loud in my ear
So when you spin on your head like a monkey
I won't hear you

I tame a bird to light where you live
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift

I am my mother's child
I let my fears run wild
Showered in honey
Showered in beer
Now when you spin on your head like a monkey
I won't see you

I tame a bird to light where you live
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift

I send a light to shine on you
I send a light to shine around you
I send a light to blind you
I am the light that shines on your eyes
I am the light that blinds

I tame a bird to light where you live
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift

I tame a bird to light where you live
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift
