[Lyrics]

(according to the Lithium single)

Polly wants a cracker
I think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few

Polly said...
Polly says her back hurts
And she's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me, the will of instinct

It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don~t hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I~ve got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don~t hurt yourself
I want some help
To please myself

one of my all time fav. songs. just listen to the song to get the timing.
