Lyrics

Album Version

One time a thing occured to me
What's real and what's for sale
Blew a kiss and tried to take it home

Isn't you / Isn't me
Search for things you can't see
Going blind / Out of reach
Somewhere in the vasoline

Two times and it has rendered me
Punch drunk and without bail
Think I'd be safer all alone

Flies in the vasoline we are
Sometimes it blows my mind
Keep getting stuck here all the time

Isn't you / Isn't me
Search for things you can't see
Going blind / Out of reach
Somewhere in the vasoline

You'll see the look
And you'll see the lies
You'll eat the lies and you will

Flies in the vasoline we are
Sometimes it blows my mind
Keep getting stuck here all the time

Isn't you / Isn't me
Search for things you can't see
Going blind / Out of reach
Somewhere in the vasoline
