Polygraph Eyes

She leaves her parents' house around midnight

Meets her best mate at the shop, buy some cheap wine

And go to space, see the Milky Way

Get away from the teenage everyday cliché pressure

Absent on absinthe, dancing to bad synths

Saturday night ain't about romancing anymore

Just you gettin' lit in the queue to the dance floor

Too many blokes are gettin' heavy

When a girl looks unsteady

Blisters on your bleedin' soles

Here have my boots, I'll walk you home

He walks her straight to up to the front door

As she stumbles on the floor

We all know what happens next

A bit of fun turns to regret

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya, no

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya, no

Leave it alone, mate

Leave it alone, mate, leave it alone, mate

Daylight wakes her up the next morning

A foreign room where the sheets are blue, and not white

No scented candles in sight

Just a stranger on his side, says, cheers, love, for last night

Got to go forensic, avoid the domestic

Get antiseptic and give him the polygraph eyes

Turn your head to the side and lie to the real life

See, this girl, she had a boyfriend

His name was Zach, and he made her happy

But he couldn't understand

In his mind, she was a slag

When she tried to explain what happened

She was shoutin' at him for an hour

Cryin' at the top of her lungs

Don't leave me here, you're the one I love

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya, no

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya, no

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya

She can't even run

She can't even walk

She slurs when she speaks

But you hear what you want when she can't even talk

She can't even run

She can't even walk

She slurs when she speaks

But you hear what you want when she can't even talk

Can't even talk, can't even talk

Can't even talk, can't even talk

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya, no

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya, no

Leave it alone, mate

She doesn't want to go home with ya

Home with ya

Leave it alone, mate (She can't even run)

Leave it alone, mate (She can't even walk)

She slurs when she speaks

But you hear what you want when she can't even talk

Leave it alone, mate (She can't even run)

Leave it alone, mate (She can't even walk)

She slurs when she speaks

But you hear what you want when she can't even talk
