about

this song is dedicated to all of the alligators in the music industry. thanks for keeping us in our place

lyrics

i learned to play your favorite song
on a piano full of blood
now everyone i lay my bloody fingers on
never sounds sad enough

you promised we that we could kiss
if there was ever an apocalypse
now every time i fall asleep i dream the world is ending
maybe it really is // maybe you’re brilliant

when you’re swimming circles around me
does it ever really cross your mind?
if you wanted you could drown me
with your eyes

i learned to play my minor scales
when we were in the florida keys
my soapbox singing got me tossed out of the hotel bar
got a free drink at least!

if only i had thicker skin
i wanna be american
they’re gonna love me
love me love me love me
all the way out of this
all the way out of this //

when you’re swimming circles around me
does it ever really cross your mind
if you wanted you could drown me
with your eyes
with your alligator eyes
i want a lover i never knew
to fall & hold me like a parachute
i want a lover i never knew. i really do...
but i’ve seen the secrets that a lover keeps
the way that you hide your alligator teeth
my body’s a present everybody seeks to tear into

when you’re falling asleep on my shoulder
does it ever really cross your mind
if you wanted you could have me for a night
when you’re swimming circles around me
does it ever really cross your mind
if you wanted you could drown me
with your eyes

with your alligator eyes
