Lyrics
Touchy Situation
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.
I'd like to find out what places she's been
What's behind her locked door
Or better yet know if I'm out or I'm in
If her elevator still runs to the top floor
Perhaps she would say, she was a student of hope
And not dangling from the end of a disintegrating rope
But I don't wish to spark off her outraged imagination
I don't wish to get in any double-edge conversation
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh, yes
It's a touchy situation
Oh-oh-oh, yeah
Someday I'll find out what I'm now afraid to ask
And I'll discover what's there beneath the dark mask
Perhaps she would say that I'm just deathly afraid
To see her make the same mistake that I made
And it might lead to some sweet revelation
She knows I hate meaningless conversation
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh, yes
It's a touchy situation
Oh-oh-oh, yeah
I say: Are ya doin' well baby?
She says: Go ask your father
I say: Give me a yes, no or maybe
She says: Why should I bother?
I say
She says
I say
I'll ask you tomorrow, I'll ask you tomorrow
If I could only break the code of her fears
I could expose the secrets to the river of tears
Rattle the senses til she's pouring forth tears
Before she could exercise those powers of manipulation
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
