[ti:Jackie And Wilson] |
| [00:36.28] |
So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes, |
| [00:41.78] |
No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight. |
| [00:47.33] |
So deep in this swill with the most familiar of swine |
| [00:52.30] |
For reasons wretched and divine. |
| [00:57.23] |
She blows outta nowhere, roman candle of the wild |
| [01:02.73] |
Laughing away through my feeble disguise |
| [01:08.20] |
No other version of me I would rather be tonight. |
| [01:13.26] |
And, Lord, she found me just in time |
| [01:16.90] |
'Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done |
| [01:22.01] |
I need to be youthfully felt 'cause, God, I never felt young |
| [01:28.86] |
She's gonna save me, |
| [01:30.77] |
Call me "baby" |
| [01:32.17] |
Run her hands through my hair |
| [01:34.40] |
She'll know me crazy, |
| [01:36.14] |
Soothe me daily |
| [01:37.34] |
Better yet she wouldn't care |
| [01:40.05] |
We'll steal her Lexus, |
| [01:41.70] |
Be detectives, |
| [01:42.90] |
Ride 'round picking up clues |
| [01:45.43] |
We'll name our children |
| [01:47.23] |
Jackie and Wilson, |
| [01:48.84] |
Raise 'em on rhythm and blues. |
| [01:51.69] |
Lord, it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime |
| [01:56.54] |
Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshine |
| [02:02.08] |
Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside. |
| [02:07.08] |
Sit back and watch the world go by. |
| [02:11.02] |
Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust |
| [02:16.83] |
We tried the world, good God, it wasn't for us. |
| [02:22.83] |
She's gonna save me, |
| [02:24.76] |
Call me "baby" |
| [02:25.81] |
Run her hands through my hair |
| [02:28.22] |
She'll know me crazy, |
| [02:29.85] |
Soothe me daily |
| [02:31.20] |
Better yet she wouldn't care |
| [02:33.70] |
We'll steal her Lexus, |
| [02:35.50] |
Be detectives, |
| [02:36.70] |
Ride 'round picking up clues |
| [02:39.22] |
We'll name our children |
| [02:40.92] |
Jackie and Wilson, |
| [02:42.22] |
Raise 'em on rhythm and blues. |
| [03:06.37] |
Cut clean from the dream at night let my mind reset |
| [03:11.67] |
Looking up from a cigarette, and she's already left |
| [03:17.19] |
I start digging up the yard for what's left of me and our little vignette |
| [03:22.32] |
For whatever poor soul is coming next |
| [03:26.80] |
She's gonna save me, |
| [03:28.56] |
Call me "baby" |
| [03:30.21] |
Run her hands through my hair |
| [03:32.16] |
She'll know me crazy, |
| [03:33.92] |
Soothe me daily |
| [03:35.22] |
Better yet she wouldn't care |
| [03:37.80] |
We'll steal her Lexus, |
| [03:39.45] |
Be detectives, |
| [03:40.80] |
Ride 'round picking up clues |
| [03:43.25] |
We'll name our children |
| [03:44.90] |
Jackie and Wilson, |
| [03:46.20] |
Raise 'em on rhythm and blues. |
