Inspired by Prince's "The Beautiful Ones" for The Bushwick Book Club Seattle.

lyrics

Your hair a cloud of candy floss
Lips shine with holographic gloss
Playing cards pinned to the spokes
Lucid dreams and photographs
On the nightstand through a water glass
Where time has no frame to lean on
We orbit around the sun
Ride bicycles through town for fun

Haters wanna bury you
What’s it gonna be
Just sit back, or kill them with a smile
And baby when I roll up
Tell them all to hold up
Let me free you child, take you on a slow ride
We orbit around the sun
Ride bicycles through town for fun
