Franklin The Flirt

On top my perch In the mirth I saw science And I saw birth swimming quite awkward But mostly what I saw Was a home that she would call Beneath her shirt, what I've learned Beneath the Earth, what I've learned Franklin the flirt I understand the hurt That you would speak about Before you had me all figured out All the beauty kids In the ugly parts of town And in the good parts we get ugly and lie down The purple eyelids sag There are diamonds in the weed sack And love's a purple drag I always go back (Before you had me all figured out) --- Franklin the Flirt - Porches
