Tegan and Sara Clever Meals Lyrics

They aren't desperate for love and affection
No they're desperate for you,
And as you sit up there all sly and sure
I wonder does anyone think as strongly as you do
I'm quite sure we'll find one another
In a place that's better then this
A time filled with us and we
Send up our shooting stars and comets
Yeah we make our little gestures
Yes we make our little comments

This song is my anthem
And it makes up my ideals
And who I am
has benefited from all my cleverly planned meals
All my cleverly planned meals

I'm stripped and vital and I see rules that almost fit
So if I voice my opinion will you stay and sit
And as I stand here screaming in despair
I said yes this is my life and yes you should care
(yes this is my life and yes you should care)

This song is my anthem
(close your eyes)
And it makes and it makes up my ideals
And who I am
(and you'll free your mind)
As benefited from all my cleverly planned meals
(you're free to fly)
All my cleverly planned meals
( just say close your eyes)
(and I will free your mind, you're free to fly)

Hardly happy at all
And I'm ready to take the fall
Cause we pay for the stupid things we've done
We come from
Can you sit through this or is it going to be too deep
(can you sit through this or is it going to be too deep)
Will you ever use common sense it comes pretty cheap
(will you ever use common sense it comes pretty cheap)
So if I speak more clearly if I make more sense
(so if I speak more clearly if I make more sense)
Will you just shut your mouth you won't come across quite so dense

And so close your eyes
Free your mind, you're free to fly
Close your eyes
I free my mind, I'm free to fly
I said close your eyes
And may you free your mind
You're free to fly
I said close your eyes
And may you free your mind
You're free to fly
She said close your eyes
And free your mind, you're free to fly
She said close your eyes
Free you mind, free to fly
Close your eyes

Close your eyes
I will free your mind, you're free to fly
This song is my anthem,
And it makes up my ideals
And who I am
As benefited from all my cleverly planned meals
All my cleverly planned meals
