B A E B A E
I finally had all my ducks in a row
B A E B A E
Peace and quiet the means of subtraction
B A E B A E
And how she got in I'm not sure that I know
B A E B A E
Two weeks on and my spine was in traction my eyes in a basket

B A E B A E
Well god in my heart is so out of phase
B A E B A E
And that kind of girl she ain't nobody's daughter
B A E B A E
I'm just not used to these powerful waves
B A E B
She shallows the breath and I'm taking on water
A E
What am I to do now
D E D E
I call on a beautiful wish with a moral compass
B A E (X2)
I better swim
#B A E...#
Hide from my psychic derailleur
Drive this car to the sea
Spend the night as high as a cannon in a towering hemlock
But it's no use you can always be found
A creature of habit has no real protection
I'll tell her I leave if she don't settle down
She sees it's a lie on closer inspection
Like everyone else does

The running a terrible chomp

All this smoke in

I'm just a simple man

Cursed with an honest heart

Why'd she go and tear it all apart
