Lyrics

Ben Affleck

I'm outside smoking with my shoulders clenched, eyes rolled back
Like that picture of Ben Affleck
Hoping that a shooting star will knock me off my high horse
Yeah, or take the weight off of my shoulders

And horses don't really have shoulders
Neither do snakes
Maybe I'm a snake
Clever tongue, clever tongue
Slipping through your fingers
Sliding through the grass
Never coming back

Baby, I'm broken
I'm outside smoking
I just wanna be grabbed
Yeah, fuck it up
Grab me by my shoulders and
Shake me, baby, shake me, baby, shake me, yeah
Shake it out of me, shake it out of me
Baby, shake me out of it, shake me out of it
Baby, wake me up
Fuckin' shake the shit out of me

Baby, I'm broken
I'm outside smoking
Like a picture of Ben
Guess he's got friends
I wonder who his friends are, yeah
I wonder who my friends are

Wanna be grabbed
Grab me by the shoulders
Shake me out of it, shake the fuck out of it
Shake me out of it, baby, shake me out of it
Shake me out of it, shake me the fuck out of it
Shake me out of it, baby, shake me out of it
Shake me out of it, baby, shake me out of it
Baby, shake me out of it, shake me out of it
Baby, shake me out of it
