lyrics
Grace
Grace is leaning over my left side,
pulls my collar,
whispers wrong or right
I’ve got siren eyes,
lighting hands,
tulips opening without scent
And I don’t know if I love anything in sight,
I wonder what she’s doing tonight
Grace is vacuuming,
filing here coupons,
saving the government,
ending drought,
Dressed in red, when I’m bad,
whips and chains when I get excited
Life is serious business, man!
She’s marking it with a permanent pen.
I wonder what she’s doing tonight,
I hold myself up to her spotlight
In uniform for her fight,
I know I know I know she’s gonna be on time.
Got this hammer, wrench, and knife.
Got this chance to organize.
I wonder what she’s doing tonight.
I hold myself up to her spotlight.
Grace is leaning over my left side,
pulls my collar,
whispers wrong or right
I’ve got siren eyes,
lighting hands,
tulips opening without scent
And I don’t know if I love anything in sight,
I wonder what she’s doing tonight
Grace is vacuuming,
filing here coupons,
saving the government,
ending drought,
Dressed in red, when I’m bad,
whips and chains when I get excited
Life is serious business, man!
She’s marking it with a permanent pen.
I wonder what she’s doing tonight,
I hold myself up to her spotlight
In uniform for her fight,
I know I know I know she’s gonna be on time.
Got this hammer, wrench, and knife.
Got this chance to organize.
I wonder what she’s doing tonight.
I hold myself up to her spotlight.
