i was thinking about how we bumble around, usually well-intentioned, but nevertheless bumbling, and how you just have to try your best to stay connected with people and love them fully and imperfectly. and also i was thinking about what it means to be "cool", which is really the opposite of "warm", "cool" being about suppressing emotional expression... and i just really wanted to build an army of warm people.
lyrics
warm people
break I’m breakin’ a little at a time
wish i didn’t do it, but i’m part of the crime
i’m boohoo boohoo aching inside
& it all comes out on you, you (you, you)
i’m lame in the brain, i’m a little insane
scaramouche, scaramouche, will ya do the fandango?
listen to your mother, tell her that you love her
listen to each other (listen to each other)
i’m boohoo, boohoo aching inside
i’m boohoo, boohoo aching inside
i’m boohoo, boohoo aching inside
and it all comes out on you
i’ll huff, i’ll puff,
i’ll blow your house down
i’ll huff, i’ll puff,
i’ll blow your house down
men in a line, they walk in time
they got haircuts
this car’s gonna take us (is it gonna take us?)
all the way out to las vegas
thinking of you & i can’t stop my head from spinning
out
is it gonna take us, (will it ever take us)?
is it gonna save us (will it ever save us)?
i’m boohoo boohoo aching inside
and it all comes out on you
i got a plan
i will use both my hands
i’ll build a fire
to warm
and they will see it from space
and they will know what we got
we got warm people
warm people
