Lyrics
String
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.
It's that rope around my wrist
It's that post-bowl cigarette
My Lolita
My sweet senorita
My cause
And Effect
Oh, It's a fucked up situation
A love affair with a ghost at the station
Against what made sense in her calculations
Annie's gonna reap the fruit of her patience
Because
Annie's got a heart on a string
And she's cutting it
Annie's got a heart on a string
And she's cutting it
And it's sailing
in the wind
Ohoh
And it's sailing
in the wind
Got a broken wristwatch
and a time bomb heart
Not to worry though -
She wouldn't exploded only
Fall apart
Oh
and it's always noisy
out here in this hole called New Jersey (Joy zee)
Life would not be easy
If it wasn't always just a little breezy
Annie's got a heart on a string
And she's cutting it
Annie's got a heart on a string
And she's cutting it
And it's sailing in the wind
Ohoh
And it's sailing in the wind
