the shins - bait and switch lyrics
bait and switch
i finally had all my ducks in a row,
peace and quiet, the means of subtraction.
and how she got in, i’m not sure that i know.
two weeks on and my spine was in traction, my eyes in a basket.
well, god in my heart is so out of phase,
and that kind of girl she n-body’s daughter.
i’m just not used to these powerful waves
she’s shining the br-ss and i’m taking on water.
what am i to do now?
i call on a beautiful wish with a moral comp-ss
bait and switch
hide from my psychic derailer,
drive this car to the sea,
spend the night as high as i can in a towering hemlock.
but it’s no use i can always be found
a creature of habit has no real protection
i’ll tell her i leave if she don’t settle down
she sees it’s a lie on closer inspection
like everyone else does.
the running, a terrible charm,
all this smoke in my eyes
i’m just a simple man
cursed with an honest heart
why’d she go and tear it all apart?
the running, a terrible charm,
all this smoke in my eyes
i’m just a simple man
cursed with an honest heart.
why’d she go and tear it all apart?
