Animal Collective - Prospect Hummer lyrics

It’s quiet on my block Except for the gospel ladies Just the smell of summer wicked candles Makes me peek into the whole a**embly They wear wide-brimmed hats and joyful smiles Claps overcome the street trash And a meal hits a puddle of water And the wind of cheerful voices Your cat is a friendly brother Who’d offer his heart with allegiance And if he could talk we’d be best friends The only friend he has is his food bowl And he bites away at your book hand For commendable attention you give him And you cuddle for a half an hour Till he dreams about his food bowl I’ll leave you in my bed Six or seven later I’m still very very happy I’m still writing songs I can’t play how But my heaven is all around me And the Zulu in my body Have I eaten all the very good dates now Is our night worth contemplating
