[Intro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
I feel the salty waves come in, I feel them crash against my skin
And I smile as I respire because I know they'll never win
There's a haze above my TV that changes everything I see
And maybe if I continue watchin', I'll lose the traits that worry me
[Pre-Chorus]
Can we fast-forward to go down on me?
[Chorus]
Stop there, and let me correct it
I wanna live a life from a new perspective
You come along because I love your face
And I'll admire your expensive taste, and
Who cares? Divine intervention
I wanna be praised from a new perspective
But leaving now would be a good idea
So catch me up on gettin' out of here
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
(Can we fast-forward to go down on me?)
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Taking everything for granted, but we still respect the time
We move along with some new passion knowing everything is fine (Everything is fine)
And I would wait and watch the hours fall in a hundred separate lines
But I regain repose and wonder how I ended up inside (Up inside)
[Pre-Chorus]
Can we fast-forward 'til you go down on me?
[Chorus]
Stop there, and let me correct it
I wanna live a life from a new perspective
You come along because I love your face
And I'll admire your expensive taste, and
Who cares? Divine intervention
I wanna be praised from a new perspective
But leaving now would be a good idea
So catch me up on gettin' out of here
Catch me up on gettin' out of here
[Bridge]
More to the point, I need to show
How much I can come and go
Other plans fell through
And put a heavy load on you, I know
There's no more that need be said
When I'm inching through your bed
Take a look around instead, and watch me go
Ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
[Chorus]
Stop there, and let me correct it
I wanna live a life from a new perspective
You come along because I love your face
And I'll admire your expensive taste, and
Who cares? Divine intervention
I wanna be praised from a new perspective
But leaving now would be a good idea
So catch me up on gettin' out of here
It's not fair, just let me perfect it
Don't wanna live a life that is comprehensive (All on me)
'Cause seein' clear would be a bad idea
Now catch me up on gettin' out of here
So catch me up on gettin' out of here
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
(G-g-go down on me)
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
(Can we fast-forward to go down?)
