The Spoon and the Mammoth
Sitting inside on a bright day
But I'm waiting for the rain
The forecast called for clouds in my head they're all around
But nothing's over my head
Thinking: maybe it's a Monday
When someone's knocking at the door
And though surprisingly sincere it's just a friend with a trunk
Packed for a week by the shore
So I'll apologize
And think of little else
Keeping appearances is all we ever do now
And you'll be stopping by
On your way out of town
I'll miss you when tomorrow comes around
An opportunity
To be drinking wine
Hoping maybe that confidence is not my bribe
See you later on
If we're still here by then
I'll be leaving at 10
Heading north after a long day
Getting lost along the way
But I'm honestly unfazed never expected to say it was the best of today
Wonder if I will arrive late
Or see the Sound and hear the waves
My friends are on vacation took their bags and left the station at a quarter til 8
So I'll apologize
And think of little else
Keeping appearances is all we ever do now
And you'll be stopping by
On your way out of town
I'll miss you when tomorrow comes around
An opportunity
To be drinking wine
Hoping maybe that confidence is not my bribe
See you later on
If we're still here by then
I'll be leaving at 10
I had this weird idea, when I was playing a video game with my friend
And I'd named my character "Spoon" and he was fighting a mammoth
And I just thought of this duo: The Spoon and the Mammoth
I don't know, it was just kind of a funky idea but
I couldn't articulate it any meaningful way lyrically
I don't even know if there is a meaningful way lyrically but, hell
It's about a spoon and a mammoth... whatever WOOO
But I'm waiting for the rain
The forecast called for clouds in my head they're all around
But nothing's over my head
Thinking: maybe it's a Monday
When someone's knocking at the door
And though surprisingly sincere it's just a friend with a trunk
Packed for a week by the shore
So I'll apologize
And think of little else
Keeping appearances is all we ever do now
And you'll be stopping by
On your way out of town
I'll miss you when tomorrow comes around
An opportunity
To be drinking wine
Hoping maybe that confidence is not my bribe
See you later on
If we're still here by then
I'll be leaving at 10
Heading north after a long day
Getting lost along the way
But I'm honestly unfazed never expected to say it was the best of today
Wonder if I will arrive late
Or see the Sound and hear the waves
My friends are on vacation took their bags and left the station at a quarter til 8

Keeping appearances is all we ever do now
And you'll be stopping by
