Lyrics

We're southern boys with western smiles
We've got it where it counts
See it for miles
Our hearts are gold and our teeth are clouded
Our bones are thin and our lips are shrouded
In mystery
When Stephen smiles my heart just seems to grow
If only I could let that poor boy go
Skinny body, skinny body
Skinny body, skinny body
Won't you pick my pieces up from the floor
I'm up here on the shelf, I'm here
When it comes to perfect smiles, I'm fast
I hope you feel as I do, I do
'Cause we're southern boys with western smiles
We're southern boys with western smiles
Stephen, Stephen
Seems that I've been left up here on the shelf again
If you'd come I'd surely dust my skinny bones down
I'd give you every single dream you wanted
I'd even smile for you
I'd even cry if you just want me to
When Stephen smiles my heart just seems to grow
When Stephen smiles my heart just seems to grow
When Stephen smiles, when Stephen smiles
You'll know, you'll know, 'cause you'll know
You'll know, 'cause you'll know
Skinny body, skinny body
Skinny body, skinny body
