Sticks And Bugs (A Lullaby)

‘I would do anything you want me to, I would do anything for you‘ Phoebe Bridgers

You’re my twinkle, twinkle little star
The most gentle bassinet blanket who survived the thundering fall
You watched as the window grew small
But you never have to worry again
Because I gave that monster my all

You’re the lullaby that gets my heart racing
My chest melting
Summer sweltering
The higher and higher you go
The more and more you love and greet
The fallen tree where we meet
I wanna watch our childhood shows with you
And all the purple underground fly catchers too
The background music is simply inspired by the complicated way you move

It’s just sticks and bugs
Jumping in the rain, in the mud
Just like you, little one
And all those warm pastel hugs

Sticks and bugs jumping in the mud
I’ll clean after you
You just keep having fun

Go ahead, keep coloring
I’ll face whatever the king brings

Sticks and bugs keep laughing till the old world is done
Never forget you were the first one that won
It’s just sticks and bugs
Don’t mind the end
Just keep having your fun

You’re just a sprig
But your heart is strong and it’s big
You already have so much love in you
So I guess I have to thank you
