[Spoken Dialogue: Drunk Woman & Man]

Do you really feel

Honestly, I'm asking you of your heart

I don't even know you!

I know! I'm not asking you what you know of yourself, I'm asking

Oh, yeah, wassup?

What you know of yourself

A-am I the Jezebel? Am I the Jezebel?

The Jezebelly!


[Intro]

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just


[Verse 1]

And he was a man, or so he thought

Paid attention to the lessons daddy taught

Secondhand-me-down blessing, she was short on patience

Carried mace and hated everyday people

The plight of the pessimist

Habitual living, daily schedule consisted of:

Work, television and sexual moments

But sometimes it gets so hopeless

When nonsense raises an octave, thoughts block all sensual focus

With a firm grasp on the grudge they both clutch in the name of love

Fear of the results had push ever came to shove

Seduced for fun, produce a lot of fight

Two youths on the run, learning some truth about life

And when he stares at the stars, he reflects on the moon

The time, the talks they share walking around Calhoun

And when she watches the look on his face as he sleeps

She recalls every inch as to how it got this deep

Now how am I to know you like the way I laugh?

I can't read the map, no one's ever seen the path

The one you take a bath with is the same one that frees your path

Oh, you going out? what time you gon' be back?


[Hook]

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too-perfect world

Today the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl

Let's all take seats, please quiet during the performance

Lift her, pull her from the orchids

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too-perfect world

Today the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl

Trying to read the script, keep getting trapped in the margins

Lift them, pull them from the gardens


[Verse 2]

Now she was smart, she grew up with this complex

That the people that surrounded her seemed to expect the world

And he was tall, over six, no attempt to predict the fall

Thought he'd seen it all until his all became that girl

She said she loves the drugs, but when she comes down

She speaks about finishing, she's convinced it's the last visit

He doesn't know the difference between come and go

Give him just one to grow and watch him collapse inside of a half pint

She dyed her hair black, maybe now she can relax

Maybe now the regulars will stare half as hard

He wears a old face and beer gut

Existence validation printed on the monthly statements

That come from MasterCard

He thinks she sleeps too much

She thinks he spends too much

He thinks her friends are jokes

She thinks he's out of touch

He thinks she drinks too much

She thinks he thinks too much

It's all another phase turning the page in the book of growing up

She has seen a lot of sex, he tried to hide his resentment

But there wasn't nothing thing left for them to label new

But sometimes the obvious ain't simple to see

'Cause even the time that they killed

Was something that she wasn't accustomed to

She never comprehended what to make of it (make of it)

He was never quite prepared to study the reaching

Together they shared the sacred practices of breathing

The weather was fair, however the hovering clouds weren't leaving

Discover the little drama demons that hide

Deep inside the framework and live in that congested brain

They had old lovers on the side, old flames

That somehow managed to spark regardless of the pouring rains

And each time they mix up the ingredients

They recheck the recipe to see, maybe they're reading it incorrectly

Collect me, consume me, release me, snuggle

Two geniuses putting together the pieces to a blank puzzle


[Break]

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

Every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world

Every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world

Every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world

And every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world


[Hook]

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too-perfect world

Today the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl

Let's all take seats, please quiet during the performance

Lift her, pull her from the orchids

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too-perfect world

Today the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl

Trying to read the script, keep getting trapped in the margins

Lift them, pull them from the gardens


[Hook]

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too-perfect world

Today the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl

Let's all take seats, please quiet during the performance

Lift her, pull her from the orchids

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too-perfect world

Today the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl

Your horoscope says that we should share an apartment

Lift them, pull them from the gardens


[Outro]

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know me, you just love me

You don't know
