lyrics

oh adam take it easy on you, take it easy on you? oh adam you got much to prove, you got your own heels to bruise. while this skeleton is full of closets and this cellar is full of wine it's not my time, oh adam, hear the water in your mind and leave the bad things behind.

oh my son with all these things that you done i guess you think that you've won, but oh my boy, you can't be havin much fun walkin around with yr hand always to yr gun, and now you gotta sleep with one eye open on a busted up chest where you keep all your rope and how can you be helpin your hope in, to do all that gropin? just put your robe on.

o child with your feet on the ground and your head full of sound, the mighty Gabriel can't put this one down, i know yr lion around. and old Ezekiel said yr playin the clown, oh i can't take you in that town, then the Sailors sang "throw those threads to the air and learn to not care, you will breathe such easier up there"

o bright sun i wanna be the loaded one that knows the best way to look at you, o Evan there's a hell below you and a heaven above you, o tree, there's naught you would be were it not for yoru roots, oh, Mama, I love you too, now just please don't shoot.

come on Oedipus, out with those eyes
come on Oedipus, out with those eyes
come on Oedipus, out with those eyes
come on Oedipus, out with those eyes
come on Oedipus, out with those eyes
come on Oedipus, out with those eyes
come on! and oedipus out with us tonight!
tonight!
tonight!
tonight!
tonight!

o adam take it easy on you take it easy on you
o adam take it easy on ewe, she'll let you do what you do
o adam take it easy on steve, give him time to grieve,
o adam, take it easy on eve, she'll let you know when it's time to leave.

My Bones Are Singing
by Those Lavender Whales

supported by 4 fans who also own “Oh Adam”

"My Bones Are Singing" is a reminder that sometimes the simplest truths are the most profound. Those Lavender Whales strike the difficult balance between earnestness and sincerity, without emotional pandering or thematic dilution. It’s a peculiar, refreshing, and beautiful record.
