Let's back up and act like we're sober
|
Newborn clean
|
Head over heals for a cold blooded creature
|
Limbic somersaults
|
|
For a toxic thing you sure smell pretty
|
Summer, salt and wine
|
For an ugly boy you sure look pretty
|
A cowboy frankenstein
|
|
I dreamt you were playing along
|
I dreamt you were playing along
|
I dreamt you were playing along
|
In your dreams
|
|
When it's touch and go you blow your wad
|
Like no one ever fails
|
For a quiet boy you sure talk dirty
|
A velvet bed of nails
|
|
I dreamt you were playing along
|
I dreamt you were playing along
|
I dreamt you were playing along
|
In your dreams
|
|
While I did nifty somersaults
|
You were thinking after all
|
After it all
|
|
I don't have to talk
|
I don't have to talk
|
But when I do and this is true
|
There's nothing I won't say
|
