Trophy Scars - Alligator Alligators lyrics
[Trophy Scars - Alligator Alligators lyrics]
So I'm running down Fifth Avenue
Headed south i'm going to get you that
Ring I've been thinking about
I hope that you will like it
I know that you'll like it
I know you've got your
Necklace and bracelets, so it's different
I'm different, I know that you're different
And it doesn't make a
Difference our differences differ
'Cause it makes us the same
And I needed the change
To call you that day I tried
To get you that ring
I said "Baby, it's Jerry
My cellphone is dead
I need you, I'm freezing
My cheeks are rose red"
So you came to my rescue
And kissed my cold lips you said "Baby
I'm here please, don't miss me like this!"
But, I did, and I do, and I will, and I won't
Settle for my bed that's increasingly cold
I dream every night that
You're biting my wrists
New Orleans and vampires
I miss you like this and I did
I met you at a party
You grabbed me and smiled
You knew me from class
I fell for you like a child
It was just an accident
I don't know what happened next thing
I knew we were kissing and laughing
And I took you to dinner
We danced in my kitchen
We tried to be quiet when
Lauren knew we were kissing
We partied real hard and we
Stayed up until dawn
Having the best you know what all day long
Remember when Kevin walked in on us drunk?
Then he messed up his car, man
That party was fun i loved watching you play
Your piano and violin
And you loved it when I tried
To sing you to bed
You said "Baby, oh baby, please
Sing me to sleep!"
Man, I tried and I tried not
To slip out of key
But, I did, like I do so I'd stop to kiss you
But, you'd already be sleeping
And I laughed cause it's cute i miss you
Elliott Smith was right when he
Said "Nobody broke 'my' heart"
Yeah, I broke my own 'cause
I can't finish what I start don't leave me
Don't leave me the Bronx is my coffin
And you are my chocolate put
Kisses in my pocket
Alligator, alligators all covered in orange
Biting my fingernails while you
Dream of New Orleans
Well, for kissing in taxi cabs
Romance and restaurants
For eating home made dinners that
Took me too long
For your dark hair, dark eyes
And all your surprises
For the way that I run, and Clark Kent
I decided that
I want you to be happy with whatever you do
And wherever you are, I'll be thinking of you
I'm sorry, I'm an asshole
I said things I don't mean
Thank you for everything I'll miss you
Lizzy G and I do
Headed south i'm going to get you that
Ring I've been thinking about
I hope that you will like it
I know that you'll like it
I know you've got your
Necklace and bracelets, so it's different
I'm different, I know that you're different
And it doesn't make a
Difference our differences differ
'Cause it makes us the same
And I needed the change
To call you that day I tried
To get you that ring
