Snails Songtext

von The Format

Niko take it slow
Show me that you care
Your love's not just a flare
All night please sleep well
I pray the cardboard boxes
Set the perfect stage
Cause wood grain makes all
Man-made things seem
So out of date
Life is not a play
It's what we make of
The people we love

Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh, why, Why why why oh why
You're quick to kiss
She bites the blades and leaves
Goddamn you shrubbery
Well I'm sick of vanity plays

Should we move to the UK
Cause life here
In the states has escaped
All the people above us
What me make of
Those people we love

Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh, why, why why why oh why
You're quick to kiss
Baby, maybe, I spoke to soon
I'll touch you once
You make the first move
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch

I watch her as she runs
My mother jumps the gun
She puts her in her arms
That is just like my mom
Never lets go
Never lets me grow old
I want to pay her back
But love is nothing you can tax
My family's not rich by any means
But I feel we won
The lottery that day
The rock swallowed the girl
And I cried as cameras
Caught my eyes
My tears turned into butterflies
They fly away as caskets close
The new day comes
You'll wait, unfold it
Smile when you feel the sunlight
Feel the sunlight
Feel the sunlight

Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh, why, why why why oh why
You're quick to kiss
Baby, maybe, I spoke to soon
I'll touch you once
You make the first move
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch

Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
