Lyrics

I've got a big, big, big heartbeat, yeah

I think you are the sweetest thing

I wear a coat of feelings and they are loud

I've been having good days

Think we are the right age to start our own peculiar ways?

With good friendly homes

You get me freaked, freaked, freaked on Preakness

I've never met a girl that

Likes to drink with horses

Knows her Chinese ballet

I must admit you smell like fruity nuts and good grains

When you show my purple gaze a thing or two at night

It'd make me sick, sick, sick to kiss you and I think that I would vomit

But I'll do that on Mondays

I don't have to work away

I like it when I bump you

An accident's a truth gate

I'm humbled in your pretty lens

I'll hold you don't you go

Sometimes you're quiet and sometimes I'm quiet

(Hallelujah!)

Sometimes I'm talkative and sometimes you're not talkative, I know

Well I'd like to spread your perfume around the old apartment

Could we live together and agree on the same wares?

A trapeze is a bird cage and even if it's empty

It definitely fits the room

And we would too

And my dear, dear, dear Khalana

I talk too much about you

Their ears are getting tired of me singing all the night through

Let's just talk together

You and me and me and you

And if there's nothing much to say

Well, silence is a bore

I've got a big, big, big heartbeat, yeah

I think you are the sweetest thing

I wear a coat of feelings and they are loud

I've been having good days

Think we are the right age to start our own peculiar ways?

With good friendly homes

Sometimes you're quiet and sometimes I'm quiet

(Hallelujah!)

Sometimes I'm talkative and sometimes you're not talkative, I know

Sometimes you hear me when others they can't hear me

(Hallelujah!)

Sometimes I'm naked and thank God sometimes you're naked, well, hello

Can I tell you that you are the purple in me?

Can I call you just to hear you would you care?

When I saw you put your purple finger on me

There's a feeling in your bottle

Found your bottle, found your heart

Gives a feeling from your bottled little part

Can I tell you that you are the purple in me?

Can I call you just to hear you would you care?

When I saw you put your purple finger on me

There's a feeling in your bottle

Found your bottle, found your heart

Gives a feeling from your bottled little part

Hey, oh

Hey, oh

Hey, oh

Hey, oh

Gotta crush high

Thought I crushed all I could

Crushed all I can then I touched your hand

Crush high

Don't want it to stop

'Cause stories of your brother make my crush high bop

And you couldn't really know 'cause it's in my toes

And sometimes I wonder where'd that crush high go

Crush high

Then I go and take some pills

'Cause I can't do all of my do's and still feel ill

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that

Gotta crush high

Thought I crushed all I could

Crushed all I can then I touched your hand

Crush high

Don't want it to stop

'Cause stories of your brother make my crush high bop

And you couldn't really know 'cause it's in my toes

And sometimes I wonder where'd that crush high go

Crush high

Then I go and take some pills

'Cause I can't do all of my do's and still feel ill

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that

Gotta crush high

Thought I crushed all I could

Crushed all I can then I touched your hand

Crush high

Don't want it to stop

'Cause stories of your brother make my crush high bop

And you couldn't really know 'cause it's in my toes

And sometimes I wonder where'd that crush high go

Crush high

Then I go and take some pills

'Cause I can't do all of my do's and still feel ill

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that, woo!

You get that
