Intro:
I saw her in the rightest way
Looking like Anne Hathaway
Laughing while she hit her pen
And coughed, and coughed
And then she came up to my knees
Begging, "Baby, would you please
Do the things you said you'd do
To me, to me?"‎
Oh, won't you kiss me on
The mouth and love me like a sailor
And when you get a taste
Can you tell me what's my flavor?‎
I don't believe in God
But I believe that you're my savior
My mom says that she's worried
But I'm covered in this favor
And when we're getting dirty
I forget all that is wrong
I sleep so I can see you
'cause I hate to wait so long
I sleep so I can see you
And I hate to wait so long
She took my fingers to her mouth
The kind of thing that makes
You proud
That nothing else had ever
Worked out, worked out
And lately, I've tried other things
But nothing can capture the sting
Of the venom she's gonna
Spit out right now
Bridge:
Oh, won't you kiss me on
The mouth and love me like a sailor
And when you get a taste
Can you tell me what's my flavor?‎
I don't believe in God
But I believe that you're my savior
I know that you've been worried
But you're dripping in my favor
And when we're getting dirty
I forget all that is wrong
I sleep so I can see you
'cause I hate to wait so long
I sleep so I can see you
And I hate to wait so long
Bridge:
And we can run away to the
Walls inside your house
I can be the cat, baby
You can be the mouse
And we can laugh off things
That we know nothing about
We can go forever
Until you wanna sit it out

The story behind the song
