Tonight will be preceeded by
a few drinks to calm me down
to settle my gut, to work up a smile
because your bones are shakin baby, it agitates my nerves
i'm feeling wreckless
and i feel the need to stress this, i'm stepping out
and i'll do this 'till im somebody else
well tonight, i'll be a classic work
and like Edgar Allen Poe
I'll die on these streets of Baltimore
as a beggar, john, or buyer
look, i'm just trying to score
but at least i won't be out alone
i'm with my uncle and his mother
and the rest of my family's history is with me shouting "HAVE ANOTHER!"
now i'm taking all the liberties i was too scared to before
i've accepted that we're just chemicals
now bend over and touch the floor
PLAN A: has got a boyfriend but she melts to my touch
PLAN B: has got a crush as much as she's got a l***
PLAN C: well, god forgive me, but she just lives to f***
i'll just act like i'm not in control
i'm feeling wreckless and i feel the need to stress this
i'm stepping out
and i'll take this, drink think, do this, smoke this
f*** you while we're somebody else
but at least i won't be out alone
i'm with my uncle and his mother
and the rest of my family's history is with me shouting "HAVE ANOTHER!"
now i'm taking all the liberties i was too scared to before
i've accepted that we're just chemicals
now bend over and touch the floor
SHUT UP AND DANCE, ms. sings in her sleep
ms. moves to my beat, what knid of secrets are we keeping tonight?
because he's not here and he's not waiting up
how about another spin around the floor?
but at least i won't be out alone
i'm with my uncle and his mother
and the rest of my family's history is with me shouting "have another"
now i'm taking all the liberties i was too scared to before
i've accepted that we're just chemicals
now bend over and touch the floor
be sure s***ting it up cuz i know loves not enough
yeah, i'll be outside the bar...hopes for the back of her car
cos she's got wandering eyes, but much more curious lips
and i'm still betting every dime she answers as her skirt slides over her hips
