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.
She’s got the eyes of a snake
Loaded dice raising stakes from a cash cow
I’ll be her burn victim, hypothermic, so damn hot
Come to smiling like I blacked out in Glasgow
I woke up in the name that I wore last night
To the sound of an empty bed
And it’s ringing in my ears just like
Sweet nothings from the voices in my head
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, don’t ask me what I mean
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord
She’s got the touch of an anesthesiologist
Please put me under
Because I tremble with the notion that there’s something unsaid
But numb my head, I’ll mumble reticently I wonder how I
I woke up in the middle of my surgery
And I watched them botch my heart
Only the second worst thing that I could’ve thought was
“This won’t have to end if it doesn’t start”
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, don’t ask me what I mean
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord
I’ll never know, I’ll never know, I’ll never know
I’ll never know what it’s like, what it’s like to love you
I’ll never know, I’ll never know, I’ll never know
I’ll never know what it’s like, what it’s like to love you
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, heart bluer than my balls
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, just say that it’s on me
