Take us down and all apart
Cherry Tree
Lay us out on the table
Your sharp alright
But no one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone
Can we
No one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone
Can we
Loose lips sink ships...
Dont Look at me
Im only breathing
Dont look at me im indiscreet
Dont look at me
Im only breathing
Dont look at me im indiscreet
Your sharp alright
But no one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone
Can we
No one is asking so leave it alone
Leave it alone
Can we
Loose lips sink ships...
Can we show
A little discipline
Can we show
A little discipline
Can we
Can we
Loose lips sink ships...
Can we show
A little discipline
Can we show
A little discipline
Can we
Can we
Loose lips sink ships...
