Lyrics

You slide in
Smile in place
Lips red
And all that makeup on your face
I'm not saying
That your money went to waste
But instead of those clothes
I'd much rather see
You cut so quick through
All the words they lay for you
I watch them laugh
At your ankles and your feet
As you stride over here
And nothing is the same
Oh, may I speak my mind?
Say what I came to say
I like you better with those clothes off
Better with your hair down
Waiting for me
It's all that I need
Hands upon your bare back
If I could only get that
I'll follow your lead
'Cuz we're better off
Better yet
Better if I'm innocent
Better here than falling in love
And those flashing, flashing lights (flashing lights)
Both my crime and my alibi (alibi)
And you're begging me
Into your sweet and subtle high
And I go
Panting at the sight of you
Wrapped around the very fingers
I found myself slipping through
And what a wicked way to strike
What's a girl to do?
If I like you better with those clothes off
Better with your hair down
Waiting for me
It's all that I need
Hands upon your bare back
Yes, if I could only get that
I'll follow your lead
'Cuz we're better off
Better yet
Better if I'm innocent
Better here than falling in love
I can't wait 'til you come through
Can't quite find what I thought I knew
Can't wait and this thing you do
It's me or you
Who's gonna
I can't wait 'til you come through
Can't quite find what I thought I knew
Can't wait and this thing you do
It's me or you
Who's gonna
I can't wait
No I can't wait
I can't wait
I can't wait
I can't wait
Push
Pull
Tear me where my seams are loose, 'cuz
My
Hold
Is slipping and I see no use
Let's do this
Right now
Got me where you need
'Cuz we're better off
Cutting through the casualties we scatter
Who fall across the room
And better yet
I'm well-equipped
To handle every little bit
You let me take of you
And it's better if I'm innocent
Check my prints for cinnamon
We're face-to-face
Now there's one thing left to do
Let's get those clothes off
Let that hair down
It's just you and me
And it's all that we need
Your hands upon my bare back
How am I supposed to follow that?
You take the lead
'Cuz we're better off
Better yet
Better if I'm innocent
Better here than falling in love
No, I don't regret
Any little bit of it
We're swimming in the thick of it
I'm guilty as the sins that we love
And love that we need
We need
