Fitting you with w[E7]weapons in the form of words.

And the l[F]lies I weave are oh-so intric[C]intricate.
Oh-so intric[E7]intricate.

(You look pretty sinking,)
But the r[E7]real bombshells have already sunk.

At n[Am]night we're painting your trash gold while you sleep.
Crashing n[E7]not like hips or cars,
No, more[E7]more like p-p-p-parties.

Please,[E7]Please, catch another.
