I could sing you 'round a pole
|
I could talk you up a tree
|
But when it comes to what really matters
|
You are way more clever than me
|
|
I know I wanted to be challenged
|
But I was unclear about how
|
So I'll be the guy with the toolbox
|
And you be the fun-lovin' gal
|
|
And I'll learn to fix stuff
|
If you will teach me to love
|
And God'll radiate out from within us
|
Instead of this bullshit from above
|
|
And we could dance 'round like monkeys
|
After the paparazzi have gone home
|
Having let go forever
|
The fallacy of ever being alone
|
|
I could sing you 'round a pole
|
Like a ball at the end of a rope
|
Have you ducking and sluggin' protecting your head
|
But I decided just to love you back instead
|
|
'Cause I have studied my own pain
|
Like an ambitious scientist
|
And I've discovered it's all the same
|
And has nothing to do with this
|
|
So I'll learn to fix stuff
|
If you will teach me to love
|
And God'll radiate out from within us
|
Instead of this bullshit from above
|
|
We can dance 'round like monkeys
|
After the paparazzi have gone home
|
Having let go forever
|
The fallacy of ever being alone
|
