Every morning there’s a halo hangin
From the corner of my girlfriend’s four post bed
I know it’s not mine but I’ll see if I can use it for
The weekend or a one-night stand
Couldn’t understand
How to work it out
Once again as predicted left my broken heart open
And you ripped it out
Did you tell her,
She’s sleeping in a bed you made for me?
Did she like my satin sheets?
Did you sing her to sleep?
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on you in a theater
Well, I hope you come and see me in the movie
Then I’ll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that’s ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
Sometimes I get to thinking that I’ve passed this point in life one time before.
Like the re-run of some movie that I saw a thousand Saturdays ago.
And I get the feeling that I know exactly what your gonna do and say before it happens
in each scene.
I find myself rehearsing for that blackout situation, when the punchline reaches
out and punches me.
But then Along Comes Mary, and does she wanna
Give me kicks and be my steady chick
And give me pick of memories
Or maybe rather gather tales from all the fails and
Tribulations no one ever sees
When we met, I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
Kicks just keep getting harder to find
And all your kicks ain’t bringing you peace of mind,
Before you find out it’s too late, Girl…
You better get straight…
I get no kick from champagne,
Mere alcohol,
Doesn’t thrill me at all,
So tell me, why should it be true,
That I get a kick out of you.
I’ve got you under my skin
I’ve got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart you’re nearly a part of me
I’ve got you under my skin
Under my thumb
The girl who once had me down
Under my thumb
The girl who once pushed me around
It’s down to me
The difference in the clothes she wears
Down to me, the change has come
She’s under my thumb
You held me down, but I got up
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
You held me down but I got up
Get ready 'cause I’ve had enough
I see it all
I see it now
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you’re unlike any other?
You’ll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don’t wanna ever love another
You’ll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder
Tomorrow’s another day
And I am thirsty anyway
So bring on the rain
Longneck bottle
Let go my hand…
Hey, jukebox don’t start playing that song again…
We’d been living together for a million years
But now it feels so strange out of the atmosphere
And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know
And I’m staring at the bodies as they’re dancing so slow
You can’t start a fire
You can’t start a fire without a spark
This gun’s for hire
Even if we’re just dancin’ in the dark
Dance with me, I want to be your partner
Can’t you see the music is just starting?
Night is falling, and I am falling
Dance with me
Let it lift you off the ground
Starry eyes, and love is all around us
I can take you if you want to go
I don’t want to argue
I aint gonna budge
Will you take this number down
Before you call up the judge
I don’t want to argue
There’s nothing to say
Get me out of your starry eyes and
Be on your way
Baby baby, don’t get hooked on me
Baby baby, don’t get hooked on me
'Cause I’ll just use you then I’ll set you free
Baby baby, don’t get hooked on me
Catfishin’ ay Whiskey slew,
We could watch the sun come up,
Or sleep right through,
Catfishin’ on Whiskey slew…
