squared off love in a box
grimy situations hidden costs
i'd love to hear you talk about your life now in queens
seems to me the weight you now support
can pay you back the way you wanted

let's have an argument
cause i'm feeling really good
let's have a fight
i want to be grossly misunderstood
let's make a scene
and grapple with the enormity of each other's words
and tonight we'll both go unheard
let's go to sleep
with nothing to say to each other
let's go to sleep
goddammit, stop stealing the covers
let's shut our eyes
with absolutely zero bodily contact between us tonight
it feels great to be right

you don't play fair standing there
folding your arms
i'm not so bright to avoid the fight
the colors never mattered
this bundle of sticks can do anything we want it to
why would we waste it on a bed?
cause i can always sleep when i'm dead
my mattress pad is pretty bad
but i'm really fucking cheap
old comforter save some for her
don't let her feel left out
this bundle of sticks can do anything we want it to
why would we waste it on a bed?
cause i can always sleep when i'm dead
when i'm dead

netflix and chill
keep my hands still in plain sight
watching ringu
talking to you what a great night
here on my sofa we're coming alive
throw pillows and company by my side
hbo go has all the best shows
i really think so
and amazon prime i watch it all the time
is that a crime
here on my sofa we're coming alive
throw pillows and company by my side

i hate the concept of water lilies painted silly colors
it's just not my thing
when threads swirl in hot water when the chemicals sting our hands
as we pack them away for safer keeping
until the next time
i pull my shit together
walk around the house
feel the breeze
so sudden
whip across my chest and
smile when i see you're here with me
i would draw out a diagram that demonstrates
the delicate system in place
but i'll bet you wouldn't understand
oh the things i would do not
to waste my time on
categorical
differences
between
us
this isn't funny
and when i can
i'm gonna pull my shit together
walk around the house
feel the breeze
so sudden
whip across my chest and
smile when i see you're here with me
i'm not any smarter
it happens all the time
but not so clean
this madness
slam my bedroom door
and shudder at myself
for being mean
for being mean
for being mean
for being mean

swivel
all of my life on a swivel
all of my thoughts on a swivel
rock side to side
swivel
all of my friends are my swivel
make me an offer we'll swivel
stolen supplies
and if i flip
suffer a spill
topple and
break my bones
i'll crawl back into my chair
where i belong
swivel
i spy a ghost in the swivel
anchor my weight on the swivel
wheels and butterflies
swivel
textures and maps on the swivel
hexes and traps on the swivel
birthday surprise
and if i flip
suffer a spill
topple and
break my bones
i'll crawl back into my chair
where i belong

i build homes for other people
needlework not so rough
old things made new with a little help
will strain the nano-fibers keeping us together
i know that it takes magic
and sometimes our schematics don't get it right
these trains without their engines
bear fruit for urban harvest
but all my talking points and hammers
couldn't force wrecked angles into squares
even though the math was there
i know that it takes magic
and sometimes our schematics don't get it right

Monster Furniture Brooklyn, New York
"Giant Egg" out now!
Monster Furniture is the moniker of Brooklyn-based recording artist Gabe
Smoller. Across genre-spanning albums and with a rotating cast of collaborators, he writes songs about dogs, death, containment, illness, and home renovation, finding complexity in the mundane (and with just enough DIY eccentricities to keep things from getting too heavy).
