Two Day Shadow
by Cavedwellers

Verse One

I'll shave off my beard
If you think it looks weird
I'll make a brand new start
So I can win your heart
You want things done your way
That price I'll gladly pay
Don't judge me
So much, please
(I bet) I'll like it anyway

I'll change my wardrobe too
If I embarrass you
Your approval rules
The choices of your fools
"Alone is not a venture"
I'd be alone in dentures
Unless we
Redress me
So I escape your censure

Chorus
Won't you try
(should I)
to make believe
(shave my)
that I'm the guy
(two day)
you want to see
(shadow?)
every other morning?
Every other morning?

Verse Two

If you don't like my friends
I've had enough of them
I'll build a brand new crew
As long as you approve
So quick to find the flaws
Of my old entourage
Perhaps they
Don’t repay
The trouble to your cause

If you had your druthers
Could I still keep my brothers?
Why don't you like my sister?
I'm really going to miss her
Do you know who I am?
Do you even give a damn?
I'm asking
Exactly
What is your master plan?

Chorus

Verse Three

Now my philosophy
Becomes your latest weed
Mind dump, then reboot
(You) Got thoughts to match my suit?
Committing absolutely
I'm enslaved by your beauty
I'm vested
And tested
Your whimsy is my duty

You hate I have to work
I'm some sort of selfish jerk
Use me as you will
I still gotta pay your bills
You want me when it's sunny
I always bring the money
Undoing
Ensuing
It's more sad than it is funny

Chorus

Lush ear-pleasing production. Clever lyrics, and I really get the feeling of being with someone who really isn't satisfied with you, and doing everything you can to please them. The two day shadow is just another way you don't meet expectations, and I get that, but I expect more lip service to be paid to the title, because I am a caveman and need such things, especially when I can hear and understand all the lyrics.
