Yours is the only version
Of my desertion
That I could ever subscribe to
That is all that I can do

You are a past sinner
The last winner
I'm raping all around me
Until the last drop is behind you

But you're so cute
When you're frustrated, dear
Yeah, you're so cute
When you're sedated, dear
I'm resting

Sleep tight, grim right
We have two hundred couches where you can
Sleep tight, grim right
We have two hundred couches where you can
Sleep tight, grim right
We have two hundred couches where you can
Sleep tonight, sleep tonight
Sleep tonight, sleep tonight

You are the only person
Who's completely certain
There's nothing here to be into
That is all that you can do

You are a past sinner
The last winner
And everything we've come to
Makes you you, you

But you cannot safely say
While I will be away
You will not consider, sadly
How you helped me to stray

You will not reach me, I am
Resenting a position that is past resentment
And now I can't consider
And now there is this distance so

Sleep tight, grim right
We have two hundred couches where you can
Sleep tight, grim right
We have two hundred couches where you can
Sleep tight, grim right
We have two hundred couches where you can
Sleep tonight, sleep tonight
Sleep tonight, sleep tonight

Something to say
Something to do
Nothing to say
When there's nothing to do

I had seven faces
Thought I knew which one to wear
But I'm sick of spending these lonely nights
Training myself not to care

The subway is a porno
And the pavements they are a mess
I know you've supported me for a long time
Somehow I'm not impressed

New York Cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)
New York Cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)

Subway she is a porno
And the pavements they are a mess
I know you've supported me for a long time
Somehow I'm not impressed

It's up to me now, turn on the bright lights
It's up to me now, turn on the bright lights

New York Cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)
New York Cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)

It's up to me now, turn on the bright lights
(Got to be some more change in my life)
Oh, it's up to me now, turn on the bright lights
(Got to be some more change in my life)

You make me lose my buttons
Yeah, you make me spit
I don't like my clothes anymore

We're spending time and money
Yeah, you're colder than yourself
Now we're moving, now we're taking control

You make me lose my buttons
Yeah, you make me spit
I don't like my clothes anymore

You take me to New Orleans
Yeah you put me to the test
I know what my heart is for

You reach out for blanket
I say girl you've got something
I love how you wear it

Now we're spending time and money
Yeah you're colder than yourself
Now we're moving, now we're taking control

Love will get you down

My love's a laboratory
I set all my pets free
So baby, you should sleep with me

I make trips to the bathroom
Yeah my friends all have true grit
I'm speckled like a leopard

Put a lid on Shirley Temple
Yeah you make sleek kills
Yeah you travel, you travel

You park me in your Buick
You sing songs into my lips
I'm speckled like a leopard
Just like a leopard

And love will get you down


I love the way that you put me in the big house
I love the way you put me in the big house

If I get there early will it be the right time
Our heaven is just waiting, so put your hand into mine
If I get too surly will you take that in stride.
Our boat is just there waiting so put that little hand in mine

Speak when you're spoken of
Catch up on your sleep girl.
When you wear that body glove
You're acting on initiative
You're spelling out your love
You shouldn't be alone in there
You could be above ground

All I want is to be the very best for you
Oh yeah all I want is to do the very best by you
Oh this time
There'll be no life of crime
Don't rain on me tonight

Circle around me now, baby
It will be ok
Because we all go downtown sometimes

Somehow baby, we'll beat this mess
It's the time, fuck, the surface to meet the specialist

And time away from me will get you down

Chorus
