speedy ortiz - screen gem lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
we were the cast of ‘midnight touch’
i was your girl, you were my side-stepping runt
but off the screen, out of the light
i was your boy, you were the craft in my sky

[pre-chorus]
and now i’m mono-maniacally trying to be somebody star-like to you
in the opening sequence, i keep receipts of every rope i slip through
and i count you, tired or tied

[chorus]
i got one kid looking after me
and i never have to tell him not to call
no, i never have to tell him much at all
’cause he already knows

[verse 2]
put me on top when i’m in shape
i want the glow, i want a registered name
now that i’ve got a bright ideal, you’ll say i should’ve just tried
i’ll be your dame, you be the crust in my eye

[pre-chorus]
and now i’m mono-maniacally trying to land another read-through with you – just the opening sequence
we looked away and so we shoot and reshoot and reshoot
tight or tied

[chorus]
i got one kid looking after me
and i never have to tell him not to call
no, i never have to tell him much at all
’cause he already knows

[bridge]
but i just called to say i’m drab again
and i just called to say i’m done again
you toe the line and you lay low
until you come back with fits to throw
i just called to say…

[outro]
i’m mono-maniacally dying to be some kind of trouble for you
in the opening sequence, let’s take a big step into the pig sweat
i’m mono-maniacally trying to be somebody star-like to you
in the following sequence, make me your screen gem
