Well, I get down so I can get up
And I breakdown so I can break up
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
And went and made my head swim
And if I walked with you a while, you would make it worth my while
And proceeded to tear me limb from limb
The bet was made, I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
But how do you know I'm not one?
You told me if I kissed you, it would be easier in the long run
You said you'd give me a reason, but you know I've already got one
I slow down so I can speed up (yes, it does, yes, it does, oh, it does)
And I wind down just so I can wind up (yes, it does, yes, it does, oh, it does)
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
But it only made my brain freeze
And if I walked with you a while, you would make it worth my while
Oh, how did you know that I love tricks like these?
The bet was made, I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
But how do you know I'm not one?
You told me if I kissed you, it would be easier in the long run
You said you'd give me a reason, but you know I've already got one
And if I could paint you a picture
It would be nothing less than tragic
I would trade a lifetime for a moment now of magic
I would kick the bucket if it didn't sound so drastic
But my feet are made of tombstones and my dreams are made of plastic
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
I was way out of tune
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Just a joke, a cartoon
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Oh, I did not swoon
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
For six days in June
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
I was getting down low
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Baby, blow-by-blow
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
A train wreck honeymoon
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
For six days in June
