oh yes franchesca i can call it like i see
and this name belongs to me so the pain is here to stay
but it doesn’t have to sting
when we drop our underthings
and i wouldn’t do a thing different any other way
bold, standing stout when i’m singing this so loud
and it’s snowing on the crowd
while it’s shining on your face
so lady don’t expect that i won’t turn out a wreck
when i’m skidding down the tracks
and you’re in the turning lane
i’m standing in the aisles, wet
slow down
and slippin on the dry spots
hold out
you don’t have to explain why you’re always away
it’s a thousand times a day
that i’m remembering your face
and while you extend yourself to other ends
i could get some other friends
but they couldn’t even pretend
i’m standing in the aisles, wet!
slow down
and slippin on the dry spots
hold out
it’s a pain to explain and blow out
like a struggle for a loud man slows down
so we can fight and i’ll hold myself upright
staying prone throughout the night
while i wait for you to bite
and i’ve come to understand
how we came up with this plan
babe, i’m gonna be your man
so let’s blanket here tonight
