When life deals us cards
Make everything taste like it is salt
Then you come through like the sweetener you are
To bring the bitter taste to a halt
And then you get it, get it, get it, get it
Hit it, hit it, hit it, hit it
Flip it, flip it, flip it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Twist it, twist it, twist it, twist it
Mix it and mix it and mix it and mix it
Kiss it, kiss it, kiss it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
I like the way you lick the bowl
Somehow your method touches my soul (sheesh, yeah)
It lifts me up to heights unknown
So when they ask how's life, I go (sheesh, sheesh)
When life deals us cards
Make everything taste like it is salt
Then you come through like the sweetener you are
To bring the bitter taste to a halt
And then you get it, get it, get it, get it
Hit it, hit it, hit it, hit it
Flip it, flip it, flip it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Twist it, twist it, twist it, twist it
Mix it and mix it and mix it and mix it
Kiss it, kiss it, kiss it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Your mama sent us horoscopes (horoscopes)
Had so much fun watching them unfold (watching them unfold)
You said she like me, I smiled, I know
So when they ask how’s life, I go (sheesh, sheesh)
When life deals us cards
Make everything taste like it is salt
Then you come through like the sweetener you are
To bring the bitter taste to a halt
And then you get it, get it, get it, get it
Hit it, hit it, hit it, hit it
Flip it, flip it, flip it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Twist it, twist it, twist it, twist it
Mix it and mix it and mix it and mix it
Kiss it, kiss it, kiss it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
And then we lay it back
Talk the rest of the night
Things that we can light
Make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Talking about what you wanna do
Whatever's wrong or right
I am followin' you
’Cause you make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Say, I don't know what I'd do without you in my life
It'd be so sour
I'm hoping that everybody can experience
What we have in ours
When life deals us cards
Make everything taste like it is salt
Then you come through like the sweetener you are
To bring the bitter taste to a halt
And then you get it, get it, get it, get it
Hit it, hit it, hit it, hit it
Flip it, flip it, flip it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
Twist it, twist it, twist it, twist it
Mix it and mix it and mix it and mix it
Kiss it, kiss it, kiss it
You make me say: Oh (sheesh), oh (sheesh)
You make me say oh, babe
