Puma Lyrics by Andrew Bird

Are You Serious

2016

[Verse 1]
Do you see particles in the air?
Unguided particles in the air
Do you see particles in the air?
Nobody know notices, nobody cares, oh
Don't try to tell her she's less feline than human

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause it gives rise to the rumor she’s a girl, and not a puma
And light that shines is not a pearl, it's just a tumor

[Chorus]
She was radioactive for seven days
How I wanted to be holding her anyways
But the doctors, they told me to stay away
Due to flying neutrinos and the gamma rays, oh

[Faint Verse 2]
Do you see particles?
Unguided particles
Particles

Don't try to tell her she's less feline than human

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause it gives rise to the rumor she’s a girl, and not a puma
Don't try to tell her she's a girl, that's just a rumor

[Chorus]
And she was radioactive for seven days
How I wanted to be holding her anyway
But the doctors, they told me to stay away
Due to flying neutrinos and the gamma rays
She was radioactive for seven days
How I wanted to be holding her anyway
But the doctors, they told me, just stay away
Due to flying neutrinos and the gamma rays
