Lyrics

I wanna tell you there's a really good reason Why I came home wasted in the middle of the night A tiny kingdom at the bottom of the trees Where I was always a winner and I was usually right Oh, you can watch it when you get a bit older But for now, in the bad bits, I should cover your eyes She painted pictures with the tips of her fingers Sewing buttons to Bambi, tying strings to a kite Turning into black and white Underneath the swinging lights Barely awake, but I still got my stripes 'Cause you're the killer with the colored kite I wanna tell you there's a really good reason Why I came down easy spinning threads to a throne A tiny kingdom at the bottom of the trees Where I was always a winner and I was barely alone Turning into black and white Underneath the swinging lights Barely awake, but I still got my stripes 'Cause you're the killer with the colored kite Tangled up, tongue-tied Tell me what to do Tangled up, tongue-tied Tell me what to do Turning into black and white Underneath the swinging lights Barely awake, but I still got my stripes 'Cause you're the killer with the colored kite Turning into black and white
