Petroleum

Imagine if I had to give you my soul In a moment when my soul was asleep For it happens sometimes Through no fault of our own It's just a momentary blip in the passing of time It's not a sign that the embers of passion are dying My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom I'm grateful in ways I could never explain In a moment I cannot escape But I can't phone it in (no, we can't phone it in) No, I could never begin (he could never begin) Oh, I could never tell you how I'm feeling, if I'm not feeling it It's a standard that I set myself to ruin relationships My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom And if I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it I would (It never stops) (Perhaps Daddy has something to do with that) My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom My bones burn And the brain that's controlling them Knows that the soul needs petroleum That's how it goes Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom My bones burn (my bones burn) And if I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it If I knew how to control it I would That's how it goes Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
