Hey, remember what it feels like to fall for somebody? Those beautiful little thoughts, those shy hesitations before you’re certain? Reaching out your shaking spirit, praying you don’t get hurt? I know some people who do. Let me tell you, it’s strange when they tell you you’re not ready for love when they display those same qualities they think you’re showing. Maybe it’s just projection? If the pot calls the kettle black, here’s to a full kitchen!

Ticker Taken
Hey there, my ticker taker
Ever-shying lemon baker
Tell me off again, my little man
Here it comes again
Hey there, my hither flaker
How-and-why and shiver-quake-r
Here we go pretend, my way on three
Don’t bother me
I’ve got a round for me and you
She’s pushed around and black and blue
She’s everything and more
She’s your for-sure
I’ve got a rowdy how-you-do
She’s picture perfect
She loves you
And every corner sign be pointing yes
Hey, mister black and white
Nobody could treat you right
So keep to her and
hold her close tonight
Tonight
Hey mister lover boy
She’s your own and what a joy
What you doing down there in the dirt
Hey little ticker taker
Nevermore a feeling faker
Pounding hard
The feelings in your shirt
