Hey tonight stay and you'll be
a girl in lights to sway to swing
oh cause you need it soon
and oh cause you need it soon
and oh cause you need it soon
and oh cause you need it soon
I'd do anything to embrace
hey two baking lights and two souls
to find, to awaken to the taste
I'd, to weigh, to stew it, debate it, to woo it
I'd, to stop and wink and tease oh
and to find it I might need a day
awake alright it'd take a day
well I might need to find a way
to open up my taste in clothes
and to open up my leg expose it
to open up my wasted tomb
and to bring it back to life
and I'd, well it can't get too intense
well don't
well you fake it too many times
oh don't
don't fake it too many times
your ace
sits a flake on the table
no boys allowed (repeated)
whoooooooooooooooooo
Hey tonight touch and you'll be
womankind to sink to swing
only standing in waist high painted jeans
understated but I get stoned with these
misty rings and wicked T these clothes
when on her the party's the way she goes
Understanding a signal time moves slowly
I'm a stranger walking the street
I'm trying to hold it
Strangers walking with me
I bet we're all freaks yeah/ a bit all on fleek yeah
I might go swimming away cause I contain this
Oh goddamn it open your eyes and open your mouth
always spitting it away or shitting it out
its the same guy
the same guy
the same guy
oh busted by the rest of the same guy
Oh goddamn it we're wasting time this day
Oh stop turning away blind this day
Always when instincts go climbing inside
awakened trouble will hide it now how many times
wheeeeeeee
I'd like to go
Swiiiiiiiiinging
