Lyrics

[Verse 1] Myla Goldberg sets a steady hand upon her brow Myla Goldberg hangs a crooked foot all upside down [Pre-Chorus 1] It comes around, it comes around It comes around, it comes around It comes around, it comes around It comes around, it comes around [Verse 2] Pretty hands do pretty things when pretty times arise Seraphim and seaweed swim where stick-limbed Myla lies [Pre-Chorus 1] It comes around, it comes around It comes around, it comes around It comes around, it comes around It comes around, it comes around [Chorus] Still now you're waiting to grow Inside you're old Sew wings to your pigeon toes Put paper to pen to spell out "Eliza" [Verse 3] We begin with sticky shins make sticky then our shoes Shoes beget to clothes and hat till sticky's sticking too [Pre-Chorus 2] Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula [Verse 4] Listen in as shin-kicked Jim relates his story sad About a boy who kicked until his shins were all but rubber bands [Pre-Chorus 3] But now I know New York, I need New York I know I need unique New York I know New York, I need New York I know I need unique New York [Chorus] Still now you're waiting to grow Inside you're old Sew wings to your pigeon toes Put paper to pen to spell out "Eliza" [Outro] "Eliza" "Eliza"
