Cat Empire - Lullaby lyrics

I cannot say 'oh sweetness' Like he could And I cannot play a lullaby Like it should I'll give you all night movie marathon And a triple espresso so you can stay awake It might be late, but It's never too late for that lovin' My s**y babe I used to cry but now I have to laugh Because she's got that torment To a fine art Smart like a foxy And crafty as a cat I'm looking up As I'm lying on my back Bite the beast If I want a big piece of the pie But she's taken the feast In the blink of an eye I cannot justify What's going on It feels so right When it seems so wrong Like a plot hatched In the sweet spot of that trap Ask what she's schemes She say 'oh this and that' Then she snaps like a camera In black with a flash Puts the drum in the drama The hand in the clap She's a map with no bearings Attached, no Safety in this match Fire you can't catch Then zap I was struck by that Bolt before dawn Then by breakfast honey We was signed and sworn I'll give you all night movie marathon And a triple espresso so you can stay awake It might be late, but It's never too late for that lovin' My s**y babe Something always telling me Save prayers before dawn 'Cause what happens when I'm with you Makes me shake my head then smile and yawn I'm worn out but I'm beaming And it seems that we are dreamy As we head out through that strange old morning door This game is no game But it's played all the same And I love it even If it makes me deranged It's like tears in the rain Burning spears in my brain Cause me pain sometimes Make me drained But I cannot complain Mad the ugly good and bad Had some happy with my sad And some tricks in my bag When it's up run a muck Like a bull that just bucked When it's down it's a drag And you fight with no partner to tag At times I would dive in the sea To escape from the rising And crashing malea Drink tea with a fat fish And find a golden key Then rise to the surface And open my baby And maybe she'd say 'we are crazy' The two of us together like Melbourne weather Be like balls in a maze see We rolling along in obscurity But when we meet in the middle Say mmm it's a treat I'll give you all night movie marathon And a triple espresso so you can stay awake It might be late but It's never too late for that lovin' My s**y babe Something always telling me save your prayers before dawn 'Cause what happens when I'm with you Makes me shake my head then smile and yawn I'm worn out but I'm beaming And it seems that we are dreamy As we head out through that strange old morning door I used to laugh But now I have to cry Because today my baby tell me That it's time to say goodbye Ask her 'why what did I do? You and me we were so sly' Then she sigh 'that's true We were slinky through and through But it's sad and it's set I get high then I get depressed And I guess when we're together It's that happy kind of stress' Touching left right down Kiss my finger I reply I can't deny you were the best And by the best I mean the mess you made I must confess I never Met a more s**y maid That smell like me So bless your wayward ways And loving craze and crazy days And things you'd say And looks you made You're not the queen of hearts You're the queen of spades And you'd take my breath away Any day that way So anyway is this the end? Is this the fifth act of the play? I kissed her then I turned And was about to walk away When I sense a little tingle That begin down from below Then I hear her with a whisper You're the most gullible man I know
