Lyrics

Infatuation

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You played the field like a tractor

Scoped for greener pastures

But you never have scored

What you've never asked for

Met someone who made me glow

Passion was like crazy whoah

Doted on another though

So of course I let her go

Oh no my adrenal recipe's

Overloaded by phenylethlamine

If it keeps on misdirecting me

Fuck it that's gonna mean vasectomy

And when the liquor pours it's

Set the table get the door

Wrestle naked hit the floor

But I don't seek that shit no more

It's different for me

Try to tell myself a different story

This alphamale recount-the-tale bullshit can just destroy me

'Cause what we say is what we seek

What we seek is what we get

What we get is what we give

I can't give you nothing yet

Except

Infatuation

Take these words and turn them into lies

Serve me up with food that does not feed

Satiate my every last desire

Is this the thing I want or the thing I need

He collects clips from magazines

Found them full of hollow points

Mixes Medea with the media

They both consume the young

The same old song gets sung

He wants to hang

So he gets hung

He's chasing father figures

A real son of a gun

I don't cotton to the coffin nails

Caught up quiet don't make bail

Umpteen years for move'n keys

Ironic he's locked up in jail

Outside he is idolized

My sister's class and ask the boys

They wanna just be like him and move more rocks than belts of asteroids

Better strapped and paranoid

Than in the streets without a choice

Peace of mind has been destroyed

But now he's got a louder voice

Idols lie to idle minds

Sayin' I don't mind if I got mine

If all our lies are idealized

Then all our crimes are idolized

It's

If this isn't love why does my heart hurt so bad?

You don't know why

You wanna be the man

You wanna be demanded

By other people's hands so high

You're caught up in its leaves

Make the audience freeze at the thought

But you don't know why

You wanna beat a man

You wanna be demanded

By other people hands so high

You're caught up its sleeves

Make the audience freeze

Like a body in the trees

Now everybody in the club stand still

Like a rubber band filled

With government bills
