Learn How to Knit (Full Moon Eleven)

I don't have a cent this christmas

usual it seems

so i'm gonna learn how to knit

i'll knit you a sweater

i'll knit you a scarf

i'll knit you a cigarette holder

i'll knit you an aeroplane

to fly and meet me here

i'll knit you the nicest taxicab

to pick you up from the airport when you get in

i'll knit you some mittens

i'll knit you some socks

i'll knit you a cigarette holder

i'll knit you the perfect christmas feast

for us to share

i'll knit you a setting sun

that seagulls fly behind on the water

i'll knit you a blanket

i'll knit you a shawl

i might not knit anything at all

if my clumsy hands don't learn

to knit by christmas day

would you still invite me by

to celebrate the day in the morning

if all i brought was a kiss.
