Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Excuse me
I apologize
He likes your attitude
He tries it on for size
He spends the afternoon
Between your thighs
How's that for gratitude?
I apologize
[Verse 2]
It seemed to last for hours
It seemed to last for days
This lady of the flowers
And her hypnotic gaze
[Verse 3]
Excuse me
I apologize
She's got vacuum cleaner eyes
That suck you in
She's got magazines
Filled with hair pies
Excuse me
I apologize
[Verse 4]
It seemed to last for hours
It seemed to last for days
This lady of the flowers
And her hypnotic gaze
[Verse 5]
She wears her tears on her blouse
Confused and racked with self doubt
She stole the keys to my house
And then she locked herself out
[Verse 6]
Excuse me
I apologize
He likes your attitude
He tries it on for size
He spends the afternoon
Between your thighs
How's that for gratitude?
I apologize
[Verse 7]
It seemed to last for hours
It seemed to last for days
This lady of the flowers
Her electronic haze
[Verse 8]
She wears her tears on her blouse
Confused and racked with self doubt
She stole the keys to my house
And then she locked herself out
She stole the keys to my house
And then she locked herself out
[Verse 9]
She lays me down
She lays me
