Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, watching me hanging by a string this time
Don't easily, the climax of the perfect lie
Oh, watching me hanging by a string this time
Don't easily, smile worth a hundred lies
[PreChorus]
If there's lessons to be learned
I'd rather get my jamming words in first
So tell you something that I've found
That the worlds a better place when it's upside down, boy
If there's lessons to be learned
I'd rather get my jamming words in first
So when you're playing with desire
Don't come running to my place when it burns like fire, boy
[Chorus]
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
[Verse 2]
Blue, blue, blue waves
They crash as the time goes by
So hard to catch
Too, too smooth, ain't all that
Why don't you ride on my side of the tracks
[PreChorus]
If there's lessons to be learned
I'd rather get my jamming words in first
So tell you something that I've found
That the worlds a better place when it's upside down, boy
If there's lessons to be learned
I'd rather get my jamming words in first
So when you're playing with desire
Don't come running to my place when it burns like fire, boy
[Chorus]
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
Sweet about me, nothing sweet about me, yeah
