Tiger Lily Songtext

von Bluetones

Baby's talking it's what she does best,
I'll just sit and agree,
Florid insults glide out on her breath,
Mostly 'bout me, (she says)
Can't you see past the mirror sometimes?
Take a look at your peers,
Stretching out all their half-assed ideas,
Into half-assed careers.

Tiger Lily, it's four in the morning,
Tiger Lily, you've got to stop calling me,
Can't catch up with the hours you keep,
Tiger Lily, just go back to sleep.

How d'you keep up with all that goes on?
Names and dates set me reeling,
But when you dialled those numbers that tallied with mine,
Did you notice the time? where did it go?
Now it's twilight outside,
And we've talked half the night,
And what did we say?
Luck could change, maybe today.

Baby's talking it's what she does best,
I'll just sit and agree,
Contradictions glide out on her breath,
Mostly 'bout me,
And where went the time?
Now it's twilight outside,
And we've talked half the night,
And what did we say?
Luck could change, maybe today.
