Swing It Around Songtext

von Nikka Costa

Gimme somethin' I can work with here
Baby, c'mon
Gimme somethin' I can work with here

I can see it in your eyes
You can hardly contain yourself
With everything you feel
You say, Hallelujah

I'm so glad my friends made
Me come here, all this talent
And me looking so damn fine up in here
I'm your gift and it's your birthday

So swing it around and put it here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Swing it around and put it here
So swing it around and put it here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Swing it around and put it here

So now you're in my ear
Talkin' 'bout how the eyes are really windows
Into someone's soul
And I'm supposed to act like

I never heard that one before
I thought no one used
Those lines no more
It's just as tired now as it was then

Swing it around and put it here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Swing it around and put it here
Swing it around and put it here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Swing it around and put it here

Blow my mind and I'll bend right over
I'll be yours with no do-overs
But it's gonna take
So much more than a promise
To move my world
To make this rock wanna roll with ya

Swing it around and put it here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Swing it around and put it here
Swing it around and put it here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Swing it around and put it here

You try to put pictures in my head
I don't know, somethin' 'bout
Have I ever rode a thoroughbred?
My friend didn't buy it

So you thought you'd try it on me instead
And now my eyes couldn't get further
Back in my head
But you still askin' if my hair is really red? Baby, c'mon

Gimme somethin' I can work with here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Gimme something I can work with here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon

Gimme something I can work with here
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon
Or swing it around and put it over there
