All this time in one place The lovers gave up the chase I stopped trying to keep a straight face The starting shot was all botched she complained So why did you make me start running Well, I didn't see no-one else running A blank - that's straight! Promised I'd shape up, that's great Tried to wake you up in a kinder place But I figured that you'd notice All this time they were, waving from the finish line Everyone has that evil thing
That's why they can understand Everyone has that rubber band Uh huh baby, that's why you'll bounce back I'm firing blanks that's straight There's a second shot, it's off! Oh baby I didn't forget I'm just confused about what I'm used to All this time we were, standing at the finish That's why baby you can understand Underneath me where you keep my head Underneath me where you hold my hand
