lyrics

you were on my elbow
on Bonfire Night
you had me doing cartwheels
and a hundred miles for you

(thinking we can beat the distance)

had me doing cartwheels on Park Street
had my apple cart full in dark streets
cut a red shape that i had to adore
threw shapes that i can’t ignore
it’s all about how she makes the room less darker
something ‘bout how she draws shapes like a sparkler
so purrty – her choreography
ain’t no evil in her, but the nice in her’ll kill me

crossed paths on the stairwell; ‘cross the room stares tell –
me she’s keen, perching the arm of my sofa, well, –
wouldn’t say no to a sandwich wi’ you
hell, you put the belle in Belle-Ville Rendez-Vous
i go incognito; i’d gone anonymous…
in a beat though, we were both on top ’a this
under cloaks with the competition
but Little Red Hiding Hood ain’t got nothing…
