Jamie Lockman - Hey You

Hey you...
California raisin smile
Minnesota inner child
Won't you come play with me?
Hey you...
Coloured contact bedroom eyes
Tissue paper alibies
For sleeping around with me

Didn't notice you were twisted,
Frayed edges, tattered seams
Till the cracks became explicit... to me

Hey you... with the dictionary in your hand
You just don't understand
The meaning of the words
They're jumping off the page right in your face
Don't know Jack, and lack of diction
Won't make fact of science fiction
Your limited vocabulary sucks

Hey you...
Victim of circumstance
Little miss "had your chance"
Won't you come dance with me
Hey you...
Miss congeniality
Missed her own reality
Messing around with me

Didn't notice you were twisted
All bent and popping gears
Till the cracks became explicitly clear

Hey you... Little social butterfly
You just flutter by
On your pretty little wings
They're stapled to the hole that's in your heart
Needful things from paper people
Broken wings and bloody staples
Still keep messing up my bathroom floor
Whore

Didn't notice you were twisted
Frayed edges tattered seams
Till you got so damn insistent... that I see

Hey you... Little Lee press-on smile
This might take a while
For that new car smell to kick
It's sticking to the cracks inside your brain
Save a dime and smell the coffee
Buy a clue or just get off me
You're getting much too big to be on top
It's gotta stop
