Lyrics
Ouh, yeah
Yeah, let's go
Someone that I met but I hardly knew (I hardly knew)
He said that everyone loves a defective heart (a defective heart)
He'd parted ways with diction, this was late last night (this was late last night)
He see me getting your affection and it proved he was right (and it proved he was right)
The way I stared off thinking that all was sound (thinking that all was sound)
Anyone I knew they woulda called me down (they woulda called me down)
You can break my legs, you can kick me downstairs (you can kick me downstairs)
I bet there ain't no getting over Joanie Hale-Maier (getting over Joanie Hale-Maier)
Just let me walk away (walk away), ah let me walk away (away-ah-ah)
And then the place ignite
It's in my face and I'm behind the bassline
Someone that I knew but I hardly met
Told me, it's hopeless I'm a slut for the New York Times (it's hopeless I'm a slut for the New York Times)
She made my heart soft, worn an aiguillette on her arm (worn an aiguillette on her arm)
She never been to Texas, never heard of King Kong (never heard of King Kong)
And it'd been so long since I'd been suitably high (suitably high), hmm
So we did an Airborne, settled in for the night (so we did an Airborne, settled in for the night)
Tell me sweetness don't somehow reach your heart
Until you fall flat down and you can't wait to start (and you can't wait to start)
This is the one cold truth we've all of us known (all of us known)
As I think to myself this could be easy or I could face it alone (could be easy or I could face it alone)
And then the place ignite
All out of grace and I'm behind the bassline (and I'm behind the bassline)
(Ouh, oo)
(Uoh, uoh, uoh)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
