Dust Bunnies

Dust Bunnies

This is an old Afternights song written by me, Kevin, and Dave. Lyrics are unchangeable, as they represent part of the Dave canon. Kevin -- want to add that blistering piano part?

Intro:
flying crying, sleeping, creeping
you cannot see them while you're sleeping
lying, dying, petrifying
they will know when you are lying

everywhere that they are waiting
you cannot help anticipating
all the pokeing and the choaking
knocks you down; no longer floating

they are coming, i can see them
wearing dusters, you cannot beat them
they're in the walls, they're in the malls
they're even right there in your halls!

Chorus:
Dust bunnies everywhere!
Dust bunnies are in my hair!
Dust bunnies everywhere!
Who let them out of there!?
Dust bunnies everywhere!
Dust bunnies are in my hair!
Dust bunnies everywhere!
Who the hell let them out of there!?

laughing, gaffing unrelieving
friends of mine are unbelieving
saunter, swagger home they stagger
til they know i'm undeceiving

softly talking, stalking, mocking
you cannot help but find it shocking
turning rancid, putrid, deadly
they will kill you when they're ready

sitting, spitting, unremitting
just in case it wasn't fitting
they're in your bed, they're in the your head
they're even eaten in your bread

I'm looking oh, so deep inside,
I would not be your's if i died.
I'm trying oh, so hard to cry,
I would not be your's if i lied.

Chorus

The dust bunnies,
they're everywhere.
i can't see around them.
they're all around me
i can't get away
perhaps if i step over here
nope that's not it...
