Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not an accident
You mean to touch me
And that's exactly why I'm here
A trick of confidence
Twenty years inside
You're exactly what I need
[Verse 2]
But I
Don't have time to play
So put your toys away
[Verse 3]
Don't take it easy
Why should we take it easy? Yeah
Should we take it easy?
[Verse 4]
I break into the park
With the insects
Striking up the costume ball
The light is lovely here
In the neon glow
I could never want for more
[Verse 5]
But I
Don't have time to play
So put your toys away
[Verse 6]
Don't take it easy
Why should we take it easy? Yeah
Should we take it easy?
Why should we take it easy? Yeah
Should we take it easy?
Why should we take it easy? Yeah
Easy, yeah
