[Intro: John Darnielle & Rachel Ware]
One, two, one, two, three, four…
Oh, you don't want to start like that, you want me to do the thing
That's not how we ever start
[Verse 1]
Well, you were standing in the door
Well, I wondered what you were waiting for
I saw the wild strawberries on the vine
Out of control
[Verse 2]
Well, I was trying to think of something clever
You were saying nothing whatsoever
I saw the berries throw their hooks into the soil
Felt the blood between us churning thick as motor oil
[Verse 3]
We come from California
The air around you was familiar to me now
You were gazing westward
I was looking at you again
One, two, one, two, three, four…
Oh, you don't want to start like that, you want me to do the thing
That's not how we ever start
