lyrics

Elegance. Such an awkward dance.
I fumble with my keys, tap the beat on my knees.
Drum pattern on the glove box.
My chest thumps like a boom box.
I drive a smoker’s car.
Inhale it like I get paid to because thick smoke reminds me of you.

I would do anything to be with you at nine o’clock tonight.
If you drive slow down Canton Road the neon signs look sort of nice.
Everything that’s yellow reminds me of you.
No one gave me sweetness like the feeling I get from you.

Everyone else makes me feel insane.
Like picking lemons from an apple tree.
I found the citrus that I always wanted.
I found the person that I’ve always wanted.
I found the person that i’ve always wanted.

Always afraid to be a wash up so I stay out of the water.
But the temperature is getting hotter.
Set an example for your unborn daughter.
In your room while you sleep. Run my teeth across your feet.
I taste your skin and callouses. I’m here for you.
I’d rob the Marlboro factory for you.
I’ll be a goddamn thief for you.
And let the needle find the groove.
And make this old record sound brand new.

We both walked in knowing nothing.
I saw the hand of a friend.
My eyes have opened and I hope this never ends.
We both walked in knowing nothing.
I saw the hand of a friend.
My eyes have opened and I hope this never ends.

Worth it.
I’m worth it.
Worth it.
Yeah, I’m gonna make you sweat.
