VERSE 1:
she held the key to my life everlasting
though i seldom do right…
and though we seldom ignite…
still i know what i like…
VERSE 2:
by the wheels of the bitter skies
we were told bloody lies
she was over an i
and it was just about time
PRECHORUS 1:
but she don’t know
and we don’t know
cuz she don’t know what’s it like
CHORUS 1:
yea, you gotta heedar
and hide it all away
you gotta heedar
meet me in the morning
gotta heedar
and it get it ready to fly…
VERSE 3:
she was my man-made marvelous sign
and pretty soon she’ll decide
for now she sits there and cries
yea you can say what you like
VERSE 4:
most of our mamas were frightened
as we fell from the skies
while you were lost in the night
we were semi-do-right
PRECHORUS 2:
it was a cheap car(d)
a cheap carnation
but she don’t know what it’s like
CHORUS 2:
for she came to heedar
she’s still my single-minded sweetheart
she came to heedar…
VERSE 5:
it’s a choice that she needed to make
but she needed more time
and i needed a ride
i’ll let the monarchs decide
PRECHORUS 3:
we gotta heedar…
we’ve gotta hide our faces
gotta heedar…
disguise our scars…
OUTRO:
well let me sleep on it…
and let it be known…
and let me sleep on it…
and never leave me alone…
let me sleep on it…
let the sleeping dogs lie…
let me sleep on it…
and hear her poor baby cry…
