I saw you checking your reflection in the spoon, Acting like you’re starring in a cartoon. Figuring out what this is about. Two hearts colliding on a single track. Stain on the cuff — of your polyester dress. You’re talking too fast, my blood do the rest. Stain on the cuff — of your polyester dress. You’re talking too fast, my blood do the rest. We look good together, maybe pathetic. We look at the sign, don’t look at the Lights, Just keep the pace, don’t ask me why. Driver is watching us through the rearview, Judging the smudge on your left shoe. Your hand is cold, shifting the gear, You’re signing things that I shouldn’t hear. Traffic is stuck, red lights blinking, I know exactly what you are thinking. Don’t say it loud, don’t break the spell, This creates a heaven in the middle of hell. Stain on the cuff — this fucking polyester dress. You’re talking too fast, my blood do the rest. We look good together, maybe pathetic. We look at the sign, don’t look at the night, Just keep the pace, don’t ask me why. I can taste the gin and the ocean spray, Night is better than the day. Hair like seaweed, tangled mess, I couldn’t love you any more, less. Watch your step, the rock is loose, What’s your excuse?
