[Intro - ambient, tape hiss, single unresolved chord] [Whispered] Reckless... sweet... reckless... sweet She doesn't see me She doesn't see me [Verse 1 - hushed, close mic] Little bit reckless, little bit sweet Fluorescent light in the back of my teeth Little bit reckless, little bit sweet I'm the ghost in the room she walks through [Verse 2 - low, half-spoken] You're in my hoodie like it's your skin now Like it grew on you Receipt in the pocket, a date I don't remember Some night I must have been happy I don't know how you do it I'll overdo it, I'll overdo it [Chorus - full band, glockenspiel doubling the melody and layered vocals] She's a little bit reckless, little bit sweet Every eye in the building, she don't even see She's a little bit reckless, little bit sweet I don't know how you do it Hope you end up with me (hope you end up with me) Hope you end up with me (please) [Verse 3 - detuned guitar enters] She's the one that every room already knows The lights come up before she's in the door Says hello like she's been here for years Says my name like it's a question I don't know how you do it I'll overdo it [Bridge - bass drops out, clean solo piano, intimate] Says she's got somewhere to be Somewhere to be, somewhere to be Funny how the somewhere Keeps turning out to be me [Spoken] Or is that just what I tell the ceiling at 4am [Chorus - fractured, stuttering] Little bit reckless (she don't see) Little bit sweet (she don't see) I don't know how you do it Hope you end up Hope you end up Hope you— [Outro - pitched down, looped, music box note returns decaying] Reckless. Sweet. Are you gonna end up with me? Are you gonna end up with me? Are you gonna end up [Tape stop] [End]
