Well, the shadows might slow down your lightning-fast eyes
But don't forget that one day you'll have your mother's thighs
And your daddy will not always make your bail
So I guess that just this one night you're going to have to spend the night in jail

Because your boyfriend will not always forgive you
And so I guess you're going to have to flip the gun and decide who should shoot who
