Woo-ho, we're a stunning contradiction,
|
A pieced-together picture
|
Of a satellite trying to fly
|
Woo-ho, this is feeling like stick-up
|
And I'm about to plan my getaway
|
Woo-ho, I guess it's better late than never
|
It's scary, but whatever -
|
At least it didn't lead me to lie
|
Woo-ho, even I'm prepared to settle
|
But I'm not about to give my heart away
|
To subjects without predicates
|
|
You chain me to the telephone
|
To keep me close when you're alone
|
I'm hanging up, you're begging me to stay
|
The busy signals compromise
|
Your innocence and alibis
|
So I'm about to let you walk away
|
|
Woo-ho, this is easier than lying
|
I'm not afraid of dying
|
But that doesn't mean I'm ready to go
|
Woo-ho, all the animals are trying
|
But I just wanna survive anyway
|
Woo-ho, we're a dangerous progression,
|
A volatile succession,
|
A saturation ready to blow
|
Woo-ho, it's a chemical reaction,
|
The acids and the bases break away
|
To subjects without predicates
|
|
You chain me to the telephone
|
To keep me close when you're alone
|
I'm hanging up, you're begging me to stay
|
The busy signals compromise
|
Your innocence and alibis
|
So I'm about to let you walk away
|
|
We're trapped,
|
Tangled in the slack -
|
A finger on the trigger
|
And a saddle on our backs
|
So get back,
|
The subtlety's a trap
|
We'll never take it easy
|
And we'll never take it back
|
'Cause we're trapped
|
Tangled in the slack
|
We'll never take it easy
|
And we'll never take it back
|
|
You chain me to the telephone
|
To keep me close when you're alone
|
I'm hanging up, you're begging me to stay
|
The busy signals compromise
|
Excuses, threats, and alibis,
|
So I'm about to let you walk away
|
|
You chain me to the telephone
|
To keep me close when you're alone
|
I'm hanging up, you're begging me to stay
|
The busy signals compromise
|
Your innocence and alibis
|
So I'm about to let you walk away
|
'Cause I can only let you walk away
|
