Mother may I sleep with danger, please

It's been knocking on my door since I was seventeen

Oh oh and you saw but you chose to ignore

But now it's more than a wish, it's a dream

Now I don't understand how you can hold me back

You said: Baby, learn your lessons when you step on cracks

Oh, there's no time to fall

Your existence would call

And see experimenting

And I guess there's just no other way

I've been drawn to a new escape

Cause I'm wearing bamboo and I'm picking up zoots

I've slipped away

Now I'm tonguing on a Rizla

And your sachet snows a deal for us

Oh, and dangers got me wrapped up round his thumb

But it's no trap

'Cause I'm in love

I said I'm in love

I said I'm in love

Yeah, oh, oh

I said I'm in love

I said I'm in love, love

Mother may I sleep with danger, please

It's been knocking on my door since I was seventeen

Oh, oh, and you saw but you choose to ignore

But now it's more than a wish, it's a dream

Now I don't understand how you can hold me back

You said: Baby learn your lessons when you step on cracks

Oh, no there's no time to fall

How you go oh

I’ll get what I want, you see

Cause I planted treads so carefully

And you won’t won’t won’t won’t ever know

So mother may I sleep with danger, please

It's been knocking on my door since I was seventeen

Oh, oh, and you saw

But now it's more than a wish, it's a dream
