Well the moth is the punk rock butterfly
Dusty on the outside, heart's welded within
And the dust is grey, is grey as everything
Matching the interior of
the rest of our lives, our lives, our lives.
Well the moth is a punk rock butterfly
Pretty but don't touch it
Guts crush in your fingers
and in spite of the night in which they hide
They always plummet right toward the light
Like a lost little kid who was kicked at school
Suddenly decided not to be so cool
'got spikes for wings, greasy hair
torn up jeans and an evil glare
You are so much better than a butterfly!
You are so much better than a butterfly!
When you shake them out of your clothes, they fly!
