A Phony, You Know Me

Moon, hang high It gets dark after dinner time I spend that little time looking your way Phony leaves a bitter taste in my mouth And I just hope you're seeing right through it Heartbeat fastener, go faster This whole timeline's changed Heartbeat slower, chance blower Fall out of space It took a barbed wire fence to cut my hand And seize my pinky ring on the way over Put a milquetoast life in the contraband It's fraudulent Don't get me involved, even a light scheme You know they're putting bins of salt in the ice cream And though i'm a phony, and i'm acting real smug There ain't no need to bring up my Sicilian blood Mood ring eyes should be green in the summertime Not that I'll be looking your way Phony leaves a bitter taste in my mouth And I just hope you're seeing right through it, yeah It took a barbed wire fence to cut my hand And seize my pinky ring on the way over Put a milquetoast life in the contraband It's fraudulent Don't get me involved, don't you invite me I'll take it with a pinch of salt and a nice dream I'm covered in rust, love Fumbling to answer Rendezvous just above the tropic of Cancer Mood ring eyes should be green in the summertime Not that I'll be looking your way Phony leaves a bitter taste in my mouth And I just hope you're seeing right through it Heartbeat fastener, go faster This whole timeline's changed Heartbeat slower, chance blower Fall out of space Basilica, precepts Responsibility, not for me Neverland, Pete's dead Pete's dead Basilica, precepts Responsibility, not for me Neverland, Pete's dead Pete's dead
