Burnt Lip
Took too long a hit and I burnt my lipTwo hands on the hips ain't boy's business“I'm not ashamed of the games that I play” she saidSomething's apparent in all subtle waysLove can exist it's the simplest of tricksOn the doubtful days don't you dare question itSurround your person with beautiful friendsAround the table we're glorious menWe all wanted sun for the warmth it would bringOur tattered, expectant thoughts brought on by the principle of SpringYou were a youth you were a supple gownSo tentative, seldom aroundI was an impulse like my father's gunShooting leaves as they fell to the groundI've foundI'd rather be widowed than killed by your leaveThere's something to be said about drowning thingsIgnore your troubles with copious drugsShe said, “my other cheek compensates for your love”We all wanted sun for the warmth it would bringOur tattered, expectant thoughts brought on by the principle of SpringSongtexteI'll never get high if I burn both endsGuess that wanting it all has its consequenceKnow I'll be happy with beautiful friends We're soon to grow into glorious men Aus Songtexte Mania
