Lyrics

Shortline

[Verse 1]

Rushing water

One keeps to corners

Turn cheeks and charters

On a shortline

[Verse 2]

Women willing

Undress your heart-strings

Follow your thick-thin boys

On a shortline

On a shortline

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

I wanna know that you can understand

I wanna feel you on a shortline

I wanna know that you can understand

I'm on a shortline

[Outro]

I'm on the shortline

On a shortline

On a shortline

On a shortline
