I Can See from Here by Jacob Langley Lyrics
He feeds the ducks
Lunch break from his 9-5
The better years of his life
Are all behind him
For decades straight
Never missed a day
When he retired all they gave him was a store bought cake
And everybody thinks he's an asshole because he grumbles when he talks
But the ducks all sing his praises smashing cake between their squawks
And I can see from here your insides are golden
But no one sees you the way I do
I can see it's true you're worth a million
Don't let them make you believe that you were born to loose
She feeds the cats
Every day at 10 and 3
Down on Avenue B
In San Antonio
She worked all of her life
Just being some guy's wife
And now she feeds these cats to pass the time
And the townies think she's crazy because she wears a parka in June
The cats all think she's amazing because their bellies are never not full
And I can see from here your insides are golden
But no one sees you the way I do
I can see it's true you're worth a million
Don't let them make you believe that you were born to loose
Lunch break from his 9-5
The better years of his life
Are all behind him
For decades straight
Never missed a day
When he retired all they gave him was a store bought cake
And everybody thinks he's an asshole because he grumbles when he talks
But the ducks all sing his praises smashing cake between their squawks
And I can see from here your insides are golden
But no one sees you the way I do
I can see it's true you're worth a million
Don't let them make you believe that you were born to loose
She feeds the cats
Every day at 10 and 3
Down on Avenue B
In San Antonio
She worked all of her life
Just being some guy's wife
And now she feeds these cats to pass the time
And the townies think she's crazy because she wears a parka in June
The cats all think she's amazing because their bellies are never not full
And I can see from here your insides are golden
But no one sees you the way I do
I can see it's true you're worth a million
Don't let them make you believe that you were born to loose
