Wherever We Go
03:04
|
|||
|
Wherever we go, there's a hurricane
Threatening to crash upon the shore
Wherever we go, there's a cyclone heading in
Threatening to blow down all the doors
She's a daisy is she, growing through the weeds
A summer shower bringing a wretched drought to an end
Wherever we go, there's a lightning storm
Skeleton fingers reaching for us
Wherever we go, we feel the shake of an earthquake
Trying to bring us to our knees

Too Good To Be True
03:06
|
|||
|
I swear I'm gonna settle down
I'd put you in a wedding gown
But I know that you'll say it's too good to be true
I want to have lots of kids
A steady job and some nice digs
But I know that you say it's too good to be true
Well, you don't want me around anymore
Still I carry a torch that burns in a storm
I'd work on the lack of sex
Before you become my ex
But I know that you'll say it's too good to be true
I'd challenge you in every way
We'd never see a dull day
But I know that you'll say it's too good to be true

Sugardaddy
03:32
|

Clicking for tickets, a weekend away for two
That's the way it used to be
Midnight in Vegas, walking the Strip in my black tux
You were there on my arm
How bad have I been cutting you off again?
Your Sugardaddy ain't sweet anymore
Lounging by the pool, drinks the size of footballs
We'd dive in to cool off
Afternoon delight, followed by disco nights
Dining down in Hugo's Cellar
Feather boa, leather pants, we hit the town to dance
That's the way it used to be
5:00am breakfast, we'll get to sleep real soon
You were there on my arm

Gonna Turn It Around
02:52
|
|||
|
I know this isn't your problem, but I'm gonna turn it around
I'm gonna be a little selfish
I need a little disgust, a little distaste
I wanna forget your face to make my hunger lay to waste
I'm gonna break all my china
'Cause I can't stand having something I'm afraid to touch
I say no to you in my dreams, but I wake up and I'm thinking of you
I want to break the chain of things
But there's always another link
My hands, they've been trembling
My knees, they've been shaking
My heart's been pounding
And it ain't the devil's drink, I swear

I Want This One
02:32
|

|
Said all she needs is a little romance
She's tired of hustling one nights stands
My bed's been empty for a while
So I baked her a pie to make her smile
Said I want this one
Oh I want this
Said she needs to get away
To clear her head for a couple days
My bed's been empty for a while
So I booked a trip to make her smile
Everybody needs somebody to seize, to squeeze, to tease, to please
Making love with the lights turned off
She said if they're on, she can't get off
My bed's been empty for a while
As the room went dark, I saw her smile

Cowgirl Hat
03:12

You were so cute in the cowgirl hat
And your lipstick, I like it thick like that
In your tube top, you know you look so fine
Oh baby, you really blow my mind
But I really like your shoes
Oh I just want to lick your boots
Oh stockings, yeah I think they're all right
They climb up, like the vine up the light
They rise up from this heavenly earth
It's the wellspring that gives me such mirth
Babe, you know I think it's all right
If we could just turn off the lights
While I nibble on your high-healed toes
Couldn't we just go with the flow?
Oh my, well do you think me so strange?
Am I labeled as deranged
'Cause I've got something that
Makes my heart beat a little bit hotter?

Hand in hand we leave the bar
To the back seat of your car
Lean in close I taste your lips
All the way down to your denim hips
Well, I don't know you, you don't know me
But we share a common thread here
A need for pleasure, a simple measure
Just need to find that someone
Belly button on the rise
From the horizon of your thighs
Like a waterfall zippers descend
I dive into this lake again
Well, I don't know you, you don't know me
But we share a common thread here
A need for pleasure, a simple measure
Just need to find that someone
Allow me to introduce myself
I'm just like everybody else
I'm overworked and under-sexed
Let's consider tonight a success

Broken
04:49
|
|||
|
Months away from our new life
The promise we'd been building towards
Like kids out of school we dreamed big dreams
Beyond our means
We stuffed them into bottles bit by bit
And placed them on the window sill
I waited like the father who's sent his child away
And knows she won't be back
'Cause how could I say
That your love had turned
From delicious to vicious when
I couldn't even name all those things
That were wrong in my heart
Hammered dreams, empty window sills
Shards of glass stuck to dollar bills
This wasn't how we planned it
But what goes as you plan it?
Will you let me carry this weight alone?
You left me to carry this weight alone
Phone call from the laundry room
You've hacked into my solitude
You're telling me it's over
But I know that it's over
'Cause how could I say
That your love had turned
From delicious to vicious when
I couldn't even name all those things
That were wrong in my heart
How could I say
That your love had turned
From delicious to vicious when
I wouldn't even name
All those things that were
Wrong in my heart

Pitch Perfect
04:17
|
|||
|
You were mad
I could tell by the vein in your neck
But my prefabs presented me a loaded deck
'Cause I assembled like a choir
Pitch perfect to your desires
Lesson one, you could afford
But lesson two was more than you bargained for
You try to forget about it
Lesson three brought you more than pain
It gave you the wisdom to say the hell with shame
Don't you forget about it
You were glad
'Cause we were saved by the saving grace
But you'd been had
You just couldn't see the egg on your face
'Cause I assembled like a choir
Pitch perfect to your desires
Lesson one, you could afford
But lesson two was more than you bargained for
You try to forget about it
Lesson three brought you more than pain
It gave you the wisdom to say the hell with shame
Don't you forget about it
Lesson four, you swore there wouldn't be anymore
But lesson five was quick on the uptake
Don't even think about it
Lesson six, then lesson seven
Finally sliced you some heaven
Away from me
Don't you forget about me
