[Verse 1] Leash in my hand Scale shining green in the dawn Barista just shrugs when you scrape the awning You fog up the glass With one lazy breath on the sign Tail knocks a tip jar Quarters roll in a line [Chorus] Just me and my komodo dragon at the coffee shop Claws click on tile Whole place stops You blink those eyes They all relax Drip on my tongue You chew the sugar packs Everybody stares like it’s so bizarre But this is just our morning so far [Verse 2] We cut through the park Past terriers pulling their leads You sniff at the fountain Pigeons all take leave Muzzles and sweaters One brave corgi comes to say hi You bow your big head Let him climb your side [Chorus] Just me and my komodo dragon at the dog park gate Moms hit record Kids can’t wait You chase the ball but bring back logs Curl round the bench like a scaly fog Everybody gasps when you start to yawn But this is just our regular dawn [Bridge] Remember when they said “That thing’ll eat you alive” Now you nap on my feet while I answer my life They talk about danger I talk about trust You spit out a mailbox We laugh and sweep up the dust (hey!) [Chorus] Just me and my komodo dragon on a city street Steam from your nose Rhythm in our feet You wear my scarf I wear your shade Sidewalk cracks where your footsteps land Everybody whispers like we’re so absurd But you’re my best pal in this big wide world
