Tail and all


I sit at this bar
It‘s a million miles too far from anywhere
Am I trapped in a ‘50s nightmare?

I pick up and play
And the room starts to sway
Everyone‘s feeling
A little bit more or a little bit less than okay

And then you walk in
Or rather you glide
You don‘t use those legs
You just kinda slide

You move like you move
Oh, dance for the night
Everyone‘s turned
To watch you hold the spotlight

Look like you look
Standing ready and tall
Now I‘ve swallowed your truth
Tail and all
Tail and all
Tail and all

You glide up to me
And then you ask me for a flame, not a game
It‘s an old classic line
But you wanna be mine, I can see

The light strikes the paper
You‘ll take me later
But where, you won‘t say
Do you want me in your game
Or should I stay away?

And then you walk in
Or rather you glide
You don‘t use those legs
You just kinda slide

You move like you move
Oh, dance for the night
Everyone‘s turned
To watch you hold the spotlight

Look like you look
Standing ready and tall
Now I‘ve swallowed your truth
Tail and all
Tail and all
Tail and all

Look like you look
Standing ready and tall
Now I‘ve swallowed your truth
Oh, tail and all
Tail and all
Tail and all
Tail and all
Tail and all
Tail and all
