Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Say goodnight
She waits for me to put out the light
Really still
She waits to break my will
[Verse 2]
Woah-oh-oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
[Verse 3]
Yes, and I know the truth about you
She cat
[Verse 4]
And in the daylight
A blackbird makes a violent sight
And when she is done
She sleeps beside the one
[Verse 5]
Yeah-uh-oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Yeah-uh-oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
[Verse 6]
Yes, and I know the truth about you
She cat
[Verse 7]
Yeah-uh-oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Yeah-uh-oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Woah-oh-oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
[Verse 8]
Yes, and I know the truth about you
She cat
