Autumn Leaves from Goddamned Wonderful by Danny and the Darlings

The sky that day was neon blue
The grass electric green
That Crepe Myrtle was so purple
Something from a dream
McCartney roses are so pink
They’re named after Paul I think
Little lemon yellow goldfinch
Singing on chain link

Your silhouette is looking great
You’re dressed up like the number 8
I can’t resist the way you call me
As the autumn leaves are falling down

I know you’re not a pixie
I don’t think you can fix me
And I kinda like the way that I am anyway
It’s just that when you’re not there
I feel the whole planet’s despair
So I guess I’d really kinda like it if you stayed

This neighborhood
Is under my protection
And I still have some connections
Down at city hall
As the autumn leaves are falling down

Oh, Elliott the brave
Elliott the fair
Lives inside a crystal cave
In southern Delaware

They say that summer’s endless
But don’t tell that to my friends
They’re all apple pickers
Yeah and we’re all big leaf-kickers
Red and orange and golden brown
In piles laying on the ground
Man, I wanna jump in
Holding hands with you right now

Nothing can compare to this
I want another first kiss
Maple and oak on the sidewalk
As the autumn leaves are falling down
