Drinking like a teenager
|
Using up the kleenex
|
Staring at the CD rack asking myself which fuzzbox band would sound the best
|
I try on your lipstick
|
I try on your clothes
|
I wanna be you for a little while
|
And I'm freaked out enough to bloody my own nose
|
|
|
Oh sorrow, oh shame
|
Take me by the shoulders
|
Shake me to the brains
|
Oh sorrow, oh shame
|
I've locked myself in a room again
|
|
|
A glossy of you next to my face
|
Looking in the mirror
|
I see us frozen like cavemen discovered together in a thousand years
|
Every little town
|
Has its three-legged cat
|
I'm happy to live that way
|
Cause no one expects me to catch the rat
|
|
|
Oh sorrow, oh shame
|
Take me by the shoulders
|
Shake me to the brain
|
Oh sorrow, oh shame
|
I've locked myself in a room
|
|
|
I cross myself and do my best "Acid Queen"
|
A cross between a dime-store witch
|
And a whirling painted Martin Sheen
|
I try on your lipstick
|
I try on your hose
|
I wanna be you for a little while
|
I'm freaked out enough to bloody my own nose
|
|
|
Oh sorrow, oh shame
|
Take me by the shoulders
|
Shake me to the brain
|
Oh sorrow, oh shame
|
I've locked myself in a room again
|
