Blue Velvet

Blue Velvet
1. Blue Velvet


Blue Velvet
(verse 1)
(1, 2, 1, 2, 3)

I want to do that again
get drunk and be dramatic
take me home and take off my lifted clothes
one night in blessed sin
a reputation that's problematic
boy I, boy I need the bad attitude you wear for a night

love me, let go of me
pick me up and then throw me down on your bed sheets
trace my new tattoo
show me your scenic view
then speedily come unglued

(chorus)
it's useless to act like
I'm not a cat prowling the midnight
acid washed jeans on your floor
and a deep voice that yearns for me more
fresh cherry lip gloss
hands on my ass saying "I want you"
superficiality
cuz you just met me, no no no
a dangerous game of billiards
with two controversial figures
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
blue velvet, a dramatic night
I chalk your cue
and wrap my hips around you on the pool table
buy me a decent drink
looking at you from the bathroom mirror sink
you don't know where we are
is this still the intersection bar?

love me, less lonely
we're the only two in this crowded dingy dive
a folded bill from your wallet, a five
a forceful hand on my thigh
into the night, we drive

(chorus)
passion, to me, is
a man getting what he wants at midnight
his jealousy is charming
it's the stupid truth
knocking out for me
any guy who looks wrongly, I want you
a jerk to the world, oh no no no
he's the guy for me
so seductively
(end chorus)

(bridge)
I guess I got caught up
in the liquor he pours in my cup
I can't do all that
I'm still a stray street cat
I belong to no man
but he's the Jack to my Diane
I don't know anymore
I guess I got no choice

(chorus)
it's useless to act like
I'm not a cat prowling the midnight
acid washed jeans on your floor
and a deep voice that yearns for me more
fresh cherry lip gloss
hands on my ass saying "I want you"
superficiality
cuz you just met me, no no no
a dangerous game of billiards
with two controversial figures
(end chorus)

Unrequited Finally

Unrequited Finally 1. Unrequited Finally Unrequited Finally (verse 1) you and I together made a solemn unspoken oath a secret never told is the very one best kept I shy away when our eyes suddenly meet like I've got a secret identity that I've just got to keep I long to get out of here and feel the spring air at night I can dream only of your long hair we snuck off when no one was looking now you act like you don't know me what is all of this? (chorus) I like that, but why do I like that? my first fantasy and my last taste of love my feelings awakened and fell from above my heart burst from happiness like an attack I like that, but why do I like that? you moved on, but I'm still stuck just chop it up to being romantically sick this is what's called unrequited love finally (end chorus) (verse 2) the lips you kissed are forever sealed shut but they pinned me against the tiled bathroom wall your friends raised eyebrows and asked questions you said not to worry because ...

Mystery Butterfly

Mystery Butterfly 1. Mystery Butterfly Mystery Butterfly (verse 1) open your shiny eyes in the silent night I swooped down into the mystery sneaking in alleyways without any sound of footsteps crouching my back in seductive black cat pose the moonlight carries a shadow on its back of my silhouette "come here" it smiles as it beckons to me it's tempting a contour of desire squirms in the sleepless city it wanders in the guise of a guardian angel to me it holds piece of love without a place to go in its arm as if they're precious treasures as you fall to sleep blissfully are you somewhere having a good dream ignorantly being happy as anyone would want the starry sky kisses you it's time for good children to go to bed to sleep (chorus) don't look at me, don't catch me don't try to be what's become of me I'm a butterfly who got lost in the dark freely singing with monochrome wings no one can see I'm hiding away in your heavy heart (end chorus) ...
