Charlie Crane - Love-Me Tenure

Last night's talk was no fun, but now I am a different man
I'm doing everything I can
To make sure I don't take advantage of her trust

I came so close to losing her I can see clearly now
And I have learned exactly how
To ascertain behavior that I should adjust

But changing overnight is hard for anyone to do
And I wouldn't put it past her to install a fail-safe or two

I'm aware that she's putting me through a test
So I don't want to betray my eagerness
I'll be on best behavior, show her I've changed
And hope it won't seem strange

So I'm sitting on a bar-stool waiting for my whiskey coke
Listening to indie folk
These guys will never graduate past opening band
When a girl way out of my orbit asks if I would care to dance
And I'm tempted to take a chance
But say I'm spoken for and sit upon my hands

I spend the rest of my night on high alert
Never shaking the suspicion this
Bombshell was hired to flirt

I'm aware that she's putting me through a test
And now I'm living in fear of an arrest
And all the eggshells are strategically placed
Tell me, how many more days?

I'm aware that she's put me to the test
This I know because now she has confessed
And after careful thought now she is sure
She's granting me tenure
