About This Track

'It Works' is a 2022 pop song by COIN from the album 'Uncanny Valley'. The lyrics frame a turbulent relationship as a kind of trial run for devotion, with partners seeking pleasure, release, and reassurance while walking a precarious line. At the centre is the insistence that it can still “work”, even when something feels fundamentally unstable, with the imagery of falling, tightrope balance, and reckless focus doing the emotional heavy lifting.

"It Works" is a track by COIN, from the album Uncanny Valley, released 5th March 2022. The track is 2:49 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about COIN.

Lyrics

It Works

I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You wanna cry, baby, cry and we call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken
You're walking on a tightrope, driving with the eyes closed (yeah)
Heaven never hurt so much
Flipping through the TV, wrestling with Jesus, I
Feel like we're losing touch
What can I say? I'm sick of serotonin
Looking at the backside (ooh-ooh-ooh)
What can I do when we're going through the motions
And just twist in the night? (ooh-ooh-ooh)
I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You wanna cry, baby, cry and we call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) that don't mean it's not broken
Yeah, we're driving in the backseat, never looking past me (yeah)
I don't know who I trust
I'm talking slipping out the back room, bubblegumming bad news
Why cry over paper cuts? (cuts)
What can I say? I'm sick of serotonin
Looking at the backside (ooh-ooh-ooh)
What can I do when we're going through the motions
And just twist in the night? (ooh-ooh-ooh)
I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You wanna cry, baby, cry and we call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) That don't mean it's not broken
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You wanna cry, baby, cry and we call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken
