from the songs album unknown
Here i go! geronimo! vertigo to free fall
The girl sets my heart racing, but my engine is stalled
Now i pace myself 'cause i gotta stay in front man
Blast like an astronaut, crash like a stunt man
To worlds where witty boys get the pretty girls they merit
But she holds the saddle, the stick, the carrot
So i rise like degrees in july or fall faster
Luck is a lady, but i wouldn't put it past her
As she fills me with thrills like a roller coaster or slams me with amps
Like a bath with a toaster
Now my knees are shaking and i find my spine is gone
From holding up the pedestal that i've put her on
I should've studied science cause i tend to forget
That for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction
Well i must've slept through that one, cause now i'm on thin ice with
No traction
Chorus:
Is she thinking of you? no she just thought she knew me
But she's looking at you! no she's looking through me
And now i realize i've got no shape or size to the girl with the world in
Her eyes
So i keep bouncing
Shall i compare thee to a summer's day?
Or concede to morrissey that pretty girls make graves
I've shed the serpents skin and lost my head like ann boleyn
While rough winds do shake the darling buds of may
I ask you for this glance through vast expanse of thin veneers
Steered by butterfly eyes while drinking drinks of siren's tears
I fear the reaper cause it's hard like heavy metal
When the beasts that you beat off are handsome devils
Yet, the consequence of compliments
Is that i am graced with graces periodic like the elements
Her imminence influences subatomics
So i want to do her right
Like shakespeare does a sonnet
I'm on it. harrassed by bees in bonnets
Slave to her affection like gramps to gin and tonics
Loyal to my master like a pack of pekinese
While i try to hold my place with weakened knees
Chorus:
Is she thinking of you? no she just thought she knew me
But she's looking at you! no she's looking through me
And now i realize i've got no shape or size to the girl with the world in
Her eyes
So i keep bouncing
Maybe i should call you up so we can spend some time together
Take a walk or have some dinner, i don't care i'll do whatever
My heart shivers every single time i get a busy signal can i get an
Operator?
So you know if she said bounce with me, i'd bounce with her
Cause every minute that i'm in it counts with her
There's only one sin i wouldn't renounce for her
And if she gave me half a glance then i would counsel her
That she should bounce with me, so i can bounce with her
Cause every minute that i'm in it really counts with her
There's only one sin i wouldn't renounce for her
But do i have a chance!
Chorus:
Is she thinking of you? no she just thought she knew me
But she's looking at you! no she's looking through me
And now i realize i've got no shape or size to the girl with the world in
Her eyes
So i keep bouncing
Yeah, she's got the world in her eyes
