Some call it powers of the fly
Bending thoughts through trees and time
Reading everyone like that old tree you've read a thousand times
Heard 'bout it when I was young
Finishing sentences on tips of insects
Sixth senses got you seeing all these things I haven't done
We're not the only ones

You're flying like I'm supposed to know
What you're thinking but I don't
I know that this never comes flying
Not much that matters that won't
You're laughing like I'm supposed to know
What you're thinking but I don't
I know that this never comes easy
But I'll never be your grasshopper

I could head to old moults
On a big species with some ancient friends
Searching for some wisdom that I still won't how to fly
Tell me what'll it take
Never even knew ya felt that way
Sitting here farther apart than Orlando to L.A.
Delayed at the gate

You're flying like I'm supposed to know
What you're thinking but I don't
I know that this never comes flying
Not much that matters that won't
You're laughing like I'm supposed to know
What you're thinking but I don't
I know that this never comes easy
But I'll never be your grasshopper

Grass, grass, grasshopper
Grass, grass, grasshopper
(I can't tell ya what I don't know)
Grass, grass, grasshopper
Grass, grass, grasshopper
(I can't tell ya what I don't know)
Grass, grass, grasshopper

You're flying like I'm supposed to know
What you're thinking but I don't
I know that this never comes flying
Not much that matters that won't
You're laughing like I'm supposed to know
What you're thinking but I don't
I know that this never comes easy
But I'll never be your grasshopper

I'll never be your grass hopper
I'll never be your grass hopper
I'll never be your grass hopper
I'll never be your grass hopper
