Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lip balm on watery clay
Relationships, hey, hey, hey
You kiss like a rock but you know I need it anyway
Angle for the ringside seats
When they fall, don't blame me
[Chorus]
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues
[Verse 2]
How you gonna teach him to walk
When he can't even finish the
He can't even finish
The songs of the law
Are they civilized or Satanist?
Cater to my walls and see if they fall
Don't leave me
[Chorus]
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues
[Bridge]
They'll wear you down sometime
Kids like wine
Magic Christians chew the rind
'Cause bad girls are always bad girls
Let's let 'em in
[Instrumental]
Darling, we're up against it
And there is no time for
Tie-ins, tie-ins, tie-ins
Go
[Chorus]
Bring on the major leagues (Ah)
Bring on the major leagues
Bring on the major leagues (Ah)
Bring on the major leagues
[Bridge]
They'll wear you down sometime
Kiss the wine
Magic Christians chew the rind
'Cause bad girls are always bad girls
Let 'em in
