Watsky - I Am Cupid lyrics
[Watsky - I Am Cupid lyrics]
I am Cupid!
The Liaison of Love, the Constable of Crush
The Soldier of Swoon i am Cupid
The nearly fully grown cherubic newly
Fully clothed angelic student
Of prudent lurid lust your
Parents warned you about i am Cupid
The oh-so-subtle mafioso breaking
Into your heart
Strapped with semi-automatic good intentions
Demanding "show me some love
Or break yourself bitch!" i am Cupid
The merciful mercenary burying
Card-carrying hatordate
Crusaders and Mc dating
More outrageous than the latest
Pages on space invaders i am Cupid
And I can do whatever the fuck I want
If I wanted to
I could shoot an arrow through the back of
A man standing in front of a mirror
Watch him fall in love with
His own reflection and
Attempt to get with himself with a clear
Conscience- I could put some crystal on ice
Blast some Jill Scott at the
White House at night
And hook John Ashcroft up
With Condoleezza Rice
If I wanted to I could work things out
With Justin and Britney and Bobby and Whitney
And if I couldn't find someone man enough for
The Statue of Liberty I could break off
The Washington Monument for her
Pleasure because after all
A woman knows her own needs best
If I wanted to I could tell
You why girls at dances
Wear uncomfortable stilettos they
They'll take off in five mintutes
And how to bring up your unmentionables in
A conversation without even mentioning them
I could tell all the guys why
There are so many girls out
There who want you as bad as
You want their best friend
And I could tell you why all women
Without exception make
Sweeping generalizations
I could cook up and hook up and look
Up the fate of a breakup and stake
Out a make out location in the case
Of a Casanova in over his head
I could if I wanted to, but forgive me the
Shit just seems a little trivial these days
I mean the world as we know it is about
To cave in on it'self and
I am wasting the almighty power of
Love on the heavy hearted bourgeoisie?
It's 2004 I think it's high
Time for more goal-oriented Cupid
Cupid REMIX International Edition!
(singing)
Automatic, diplomatic- do what you do playa
Just keep some lovin' on your mind
I'm gonna shoot an arrow through Pakistan's
Heart and watch it go
Make out with India in the
Backseat of it's Camaro
I'm gonna sprinkle love doses all over
The Middle East and see Israel
And Palestine moaning in the throes of
Passion on the West Bank
And I'm gonna teach the president
To stop fucking the
World over and show him how to make love
I want the USA and Iraq to
Rock to Rockin' the Casbah
Giving each other rubdowns with calamine oil
No more deleting or creeping
No more cheating silently in
Pantomime on Middle
Eastern allies claiming oil as an alibi
And I want to hear George W bush
Asking Saddam Hussein to be his Valentine
Don't say peace in the East
Is a fleeting mirage
I know Sweden be needing a Swedish massage
I see Eden right here and
I'm fiendin the cause
By the evening I'm leaving to see
That this heathen gets Ireland, England
And Whales to minage
Basically George Porgie's pushing for
A diplomatic orgy
Uganda, Botswana, Guyana, Peru
Namibia, Libya, India too
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan
Kirghiizistan
Kazakhstan tell 'em I'm comin' for you
I'm gonna get all the tanning oil and give
The world a sensual full body massage
Dislodging misogyny causing a
Total global collage
And going rope-a dope on
Folks who go for broke on
Breaking hope and groping fraud
So Cupid just quit his deskjob, Bob
And this vigilante love god's
Marauding on uncharted ground
The standard rounds of applause lauded
On liberally living the cause
Giving the flaws a bit of the credit
Of breaking the laws and giving me
Migraines my pain is the refrain of a
Symphony of sympathy sweeping the planet
Damnit I've got a blazing arrow
And I'm not afraid
To plant it right in your ass if
You've got one ounce of
Anti-romantic Semitic semantics in
You that you wanna pass off as true
If you're a threat to global
Harmony I'm comin' for you
Not to hurt you just to show
You what some lovin' can do
The age of fighting is through
We'll be as close as superglue
If you get off your ass and show
Some goddamn love to Cupid too
The Liaison of Love, the Constable of Crush
The Soldier of Swoon i am Cupid
The nearly fully grown cherubic newly
Fully clothed angelic student
Of prudent lurid lust your
Parents warned you about i am Cupid
The oh-so-subtle mafioso breaking
