Spent two pence later now I'm sick of the sound

Song bird traitor can you sing it so loud

Salt shaken flavour poured into my mouth

Stop when I see my reflection in your doubt

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book

Now I've tasted your taste and

You've put on a different face

Escape to the waters edge and

I'll smell out your nasty pledge

My baby it sees the truth and

Baby you got no good root

My dark room just turned so bright and

Our red room turned into night

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book

Shave a wink of sleep then start to hear

The sad love song weep at my door

It doesn't happen anymore not if I ignore

So I'll shave that wink of sleep and I'll say

Let's sew your head for a while let's sew your head for a while

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book book I

I just wanna read a book
