lyrics

Two small snakes on a garden path
Step to the left and I hold my breath
But one goes forward
And the other goes back
And I'm caught in the middle and I can't get past
I'm caught in the middle and I can't get past

You're caught in the middle and you can't get past
You want something that you know won't last
So you don't go forward
and you won't go back
You're caught in the middle and you can't get past
you're caught in the middle and you can't get past

Ooo where did I go wrong?
I never asked for much,
but who could be so strong,
to lift the weight I love to clutch?

Two small snakes on a garden path
One to the other says I can't relax
For something I did and I can't take back
Now I'm caught in the middle and I can't get past
I'm caught in the middle and I can't get past

When two big boots in a cloud of dust
Step to the left with a mighty fuss
And you're caught in the middle til at last, you must
get on, don't you let 'em get the best of us
get on, don't you let 'em get the best of us
get on, don't you let 'em get the best of us
get on, don't you let 'em get the best of us

New Long Leg
by Dry Cleaning

supported by 5 fans who also own “Two Small Snakes”

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
