lyrics

your eyes say they're gonna kill, kill, kill me
your 45 is gonna kiss, kiss, kiss me
i'm puttin' on my lipstick all nice and pretty
i'll pick you up at 9 so boy be ready

alright...
step one:
eyefucks, dry humps
see each other at a club and go "oh hi um"
she's got a nice butt
yeah junior high stuff
step two:
put your left shoe on the right cut
dance real slow
don't turn the lights up
step three:
is it just me
or is this nice hon?
step four:
red or white
step five:
spend the night
step six:
freak out leave after breakfast
i think something is wrong with me
mousetrap
but when i catch it
i want it to leave
i can't stop myself
from obsessing
and that makes these chases obsolete
like i got her in my sights but never shot the skeet
'scuze me don't mean to be rude
talk is cheap
but this one might get my heart to beat
whaddya mean this is how it always starts with me?
i saw her yelling at me in slow motion in the future and i turned to run but then she grabbed me by the shoulder and said

your eyes say they're gonna kill, kill, kill me
your 45 is gonna kiss, kiss, kiss me
i'm puttin' on my lipstick all nice and pretty
i'll pick you up at 9 so boy be ready

alright okay
i been derelict in my duties
to share some spit with a cutie or two
a paralytic consuming nuisance and
yet i'm a fool i'm a stupid fool yeah
i'm a dog and i drool
try it to play it cool
but too much pop music got me
all stupid
well call me thick but it's
ballroom blitz
no poker face, i throw in all my chips
let's talk about sex like salt and pepa
cuz i clean up nice but i dirty down better
here's some free advice
let her dance for awhile before you go get her
she really got that joie de vivre
lookin' at her move I can hardly breathe
not a thing missin'
ain't no cheap trickin'
and didn't I didn't I didn't I
miss it

she said i'm right outside i'm waiting on the porch (porch)
i made a run like i was breaking for the door (door)
she waved and disappeared while i waited sitting here because
i've tasted blood and i want more (more more more)
my god what are you doing to me?!
now i'm up all night putting moves on the sheets
and i realize that i've been stupid
but baby please
you were the little red corvette for me
now i've lost my drive
and i've lost my mind
you have no idea what a mess you leave
and eventually
you'll regret this!
please don't leave
i take it all back
just sing!

your eyes say they're gonna kill, kill, kill me
your 45 is gonna kiss, kiss, kiss me
i'm puttin' on my lipstick all nice and pretty
i'll pick you up at 9 so boy be ready
you got secrets they all told, told, told me
when your clip is empty you can hold, hold, hold me
and i'm puttin' on my lipstick so boy be ready
true romance is never nice and pretty.
