lyrics

I wanna be a body in motion
I wanna make a quiet commotion
Don’t you wish you were a wave in the ocean?
Rollin, rollin, a body in motion

I wanna be a Kenmore sewing machine
Nineteen sixties army green
Keep things together with my seams
From a needle piercing unapologetically

I wanna be a body in motion
I wanna make a quiet commotion
Don’t you wish you were a wave in the ocean?
Rollin, rollin,
A body in motion

I wanna be
that thing that sits on people’s desks in the movies
A system of weights and of strings
That moves back and forth click-clacking auspiciously

To be honest
I had to look up what auspicious meant
It means conducive to success
I want to
Conduce
Success, success
I wish I weren’t a mess
Success, success
I wish I weren’t a mess

I wanna be a body in motion
I wanna make a quiet commotion
Don’t you wish you were content with knowing
You’re no one,
no one
You’re just a body in motion
