Throw on
That old song
That's unchanged melody
Could calm you just like me
Throw in
Some dancin'
That familiar rhythm
Clears up that schism
But he refuses
Makin' excuses
You let your hair down
Kick off your heels now
Box in the moonlight
Til the sunrise taps you out
You're feeling snake and rhythm
Bare feet and precision
The silhouette in constant motion
Spinning a web to get his attention
And he refuses
Makin' excuses
He won't get down
No no no no no no
I can't move to this song
Right always moving wrong
I should be gone
I should be running along
No I got work in the morning
Think I ate something with poison
I'm hearing voices
I chipped my front tooth
I am telling the truth
I'm not making excuses
I know it's alarming
I think I've come down with something
These are not ruses
I'm not telling lies
I might die
I'm not making excuses
You got no time to mend
A garden of lemons
That he planted in his kisses
When he thought you weren't paying attention
He's drinking milk so sour
Getting bored and by the hour
A silhouette in constant motion
Spinning a web of tired affection
Go in
With movement
A stiff stiletto
Will move repetto
It's so fleeting
Bears repeating
I think you're making it up
I think you're making it up
I can't move to the song
Right always moving wrong
I should be gone
I should be running along
No I got work in the morning
Think I ate something with poison
I'm hearing voices
I chipped my front tooth
I am telling the truth
I'm not making excuses
I know it's alarming
I think I've come down with something
These are not ruses
I'm not telling lies
I might die
I'm not making excuses
No I got work in the morning
Think I ate something with poison
I'm hearing voices
I chipped my front tooth
I am telling the truth
I'm not making excuses
I know it's alarming
I think I've come down with something
These are not ruses
I'm not telling lies
I might die
I'm not making excuses
