Tickle Me Red

now we're getting down early in the afternoon
we do a hundred sketchy things i swore i'd never get to do
there's a fire in your smile, let me watch for a while
can't keep my eyes off your legs with that dress on you

wake me up now
i need this so bad
all the drugs i could fit in my lungs
couldn't fuck me up half as hard as the understated one

I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for this
waiting all my life for this

you make a blunt remark about my size
as we walk down sunset boulevard trading starry eyes
and the things that you say pierce the hide of L.A.
watch you giggle as it spits up bile to block your way and i melt

as your top lip wrinkles
with wits so nimble
weaks my ghost, queen of my former coast
you extend your arm to save me from its hungry mount

I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for this
waiting all my life for this

you tend to laugh with childish dignity
and you tend to pretend that you didnt always see
when i psychically said "you should choose me instead"
my eyes stripped you bare right in front of me

but if you leave me, I'll always wait here
born blunt put holes in our tongues
i wish i could've met you as a younger one

I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for this
waiting all my life for this
