Standing in the wake of a sleeping pill now
Staying up for days in the poppy fields now
So if I see you on the streets and I don't call
Know my mind see-saws
In back beat time I understand now
The joker and the ace and how to play my hand now
So when the lion doth roar I creep on by
And make another copy of the key to the sky
I need just a little time
To sing you a line
You won't soon forget
About a wide eyed boy
And the murderous joy
When words to a song he sets
Give me just a little time
So blush baby blush when the sun goes down now
I feel half dead in my murder ballad crown now
I'll come alive in the final hour
Though my mind see-saws...
Standing in the wake of a sleeping pill now
Staying up for days in the poppy fields now
So if I see you on the streets and I don't call
I made another copy of the key to the sky
Know my mind see-saws
I need just a little time
To sing you a line
You won't soon forget
About the wide eyed boy
And the murderous joy
When words to a song he sets
I need just a little time
To sing you a line
You won't soon forget
About the wide eyed boy
And the murderous joy
When words to a song he sets
Give me just a little time
I need just a little time
