Lyrics

Work This Time

I knock hello but I see that you've got hypothermia
So I place a block to stop the rot and hope that I can warm you up
Do I have to shake you babe until you're blind?
Cause every light bulbs' gone and I'm feeling so inclined

Can never lay my whole head down
Can never lay my whole head down
Can never lay my whole head down

I know I'm lazy but baby I will work this time

It's kind of funny that I live the poetry I can not write
But you my beauty shall be fixed forever loosely in my heart
Do I have to shake you babe until you're blind?
Cause every light bulbs' gone and I'm feeling so inclined

Can never lay my whole head down
Can never lay my whole head down
Can never lay my whole head down

I know I'm lazy but baby I will work this time
