lyrics

ooh I get new life today
I can travel in your heart
but a figure walked my way
looked just like a crossing guard
it's like my crush
watching me parallel park
watching me dress in the dark
watching me close and then far
watching me parallel park
it's like a long-nailed ruler fixin to burn a blushing princess
stealing paintings off the wall
cherry footsteps case the long and dirty hall
broken green glass pieces ornament the fall of the queen before her
summoning the call for a new law
but the table's getting turned
when there's one last vixen maiden left to burn
it's like my crush
watching me parallel park
watching me dress in the dark
when the table's easy to turn
but there's always someone left to burn
watching me close and then far
it's like my
clutch
watching me slip in this car
when the table's easy to turn
but there's always someone left to burn
oh yeah
it's like a long breath weaving
curling through the dome-topped ceiling
beading like a heart of stone
achieving all my delusions of her
I pop my eight track in
got my refurbished bug on a weekend
crossed the witch out on the lot with a grin
but the table's easy to turn
when there's one last fixin demon left to burn
it's like my crush
watching me parallel park
watching me dress in the dark
watching me close and then far
it's like my
clutch
watching me slip and then park
