[Intro]

You make me lose my buttons

Oh yeah, you make me spit

I don’t like my clothes anymore

We’re spending time and money

Yeah, you’re colder than yourself

Now we’re moving, now we’re taking control

[Verse 1]

You make me lose my buttons

Oh yeah, you make me spit

I don’t like my clothes anymore

You take me to New Orleans

Yeah you put me to the test

I know what my heart is for

You reach out for a blanket

I say girl you’ve got something

I love how you wear it

Now we’re spending time and money

Yeah you’re colder than yourself

Now we’re moving, now we’re taking control

[Chorus]

Love

Will get you down

[Verse 2]

My love's a laboratory

I set all my pets free

So baby you should sleep with me

I make trips to the bathroom

And my friends don't have true grit

I am speckled like a leopard

Put a lid on Shirley Temple

Yeah, you make sleek kills

Yeah, you travel, you travel

You park me in your Buick

You sing songs into my lips

Well, I am speckled like a leopard

Just like a leopard

[Chorus]

Trust

Will get you down

I love the way

You put me in the big house

I love the way

You put me in the big house

[Post-Chorus]

If I get there early will it be the right time?

Our heaven is just waiting

So put your hand into mine

If I get too surly will you take that in stride?

Our boat is just there waiting

So put that little hand in mine

[Bridge]

And speak when you’re spoken of

Catch up on your sleep, girl

When you wear that body glove

You’re acting on initiative

And you’re spelling out your love

You shouldn’t be alone in there

You could be above ground

All I want is to be the very best for you

Oh yeah, all I want is to do the very best by you

Oh, there's time

There'll be no life of crime

Don't rain on me tonight

Circle around me now, baby, it’ll be okay

Cause we all go downtown sometimes

Somehow, baby, we’ll beat this mess

It’s the time, fuck the surface to meet the specialist

[Chorus]

And time away from me

Will get you down

I love the way

You put me in the big house

I love the way

You put me in the big house

[Post-Chorus]

If I get there early, will it be the right time?

Our heaven is just waiting

So put your hand into mine

If I get too surly will you take that in stride?

Our boat is just there waiting

So put your little hand in mine

[Bridge]

And speak when you’re spoken of

Catch up on your sleep

When you wear that body glove

You’re acting on initiative

And you’re spelling out your love

You shouldn’t be alone in there

You could be above ground

If you're frustrated then go

If you're frustrated then go

[Outro]

Honey bee, you should be through with this

Your packaged eyes, your vicious lips

You could be young, but you're out of touch

If this love's been done, then what's your rush?

I'm a specialist in hope and I'm registered to vote

Why don't you come into my barrio

We'll see if we can float

I'm a specialist in hope and I'm registered to vote

Why don't you come into my barrio

We'll see if you can float
