Attracting Flies

Hold on now, I'm choking

Give me a second to collect myself

You must be joking

Otherwise I'm laughing to myself

Why you here again?

Hold on a minute, let me check this out

Your invitation's a fake

Must be from a ticket tout

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

Little grey fairy tales and

Little white lies

Everything you exhale is attracting flies

And you can go off the rails and

You can cry your eyes out

But everything you exhale is attracting flies

Please stay, it's your moment

I'll give you all the listening that you need

Don't be a showman

Who needs the drama? who said you had to bleed?

I'm excited

Come on, surprise me, sweep me off my feet

Oh, enlighten me

What is this special thing 'bout you I need

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

Little grey fairy tales and

Little white lies

Everything you exhale is attracting flies

And you can go off the rails and

You can cry your eyes out

But everything you exhale is attracting flies

How'd you think it felt when you stuck the knife in?

You know my heart died and had me aching

How about a piece of your own medicine

Now you're outside there tryna get in

B-a-b-e, why would I care if you want me?

B-a-b-e, why would I care if you don't?

B-a-b-e, why would I care if you need me?

B-a-b-e, why would I care if you don't?

Little grey fairy tales and

Little white lies

Everything you exhale is attracting flies

And you can go off the rails and

You can cry your eyes out

But everything you exhale is attracting flies
