Petroleum

Imagine if I had to give you my soul In a moment when my soul was asleep For it happens sometimes Through no fault of our own It's just a momentary blip in the passing of time It's not a sign that the embers of passion are dying My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom I'm grateful in ways I could never explain In a moment I cannot escape But I can't phone it in (No, we can't phone it in) No, I could never begin (He could never begin) Oh, I could never tell you how I'm feeling, if I'm not feeling it It's a standard that I set myself to ruin relationships My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom And if I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it I would My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom My bones burn (My bones burn) And if I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it I would That's how it goes Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
