I tried to get you out of the sun.
Then I tried to fight you off like a matador.
Then I was bored.
I tried to fly you back to the sun. (Waaa-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhhh!)
Then you were attacked by giant centipedes.
Now I'm set free. (Now I’m set free.)
Now I'm set free. (Now I’m set free.)
Now I'm set free.
I can’t look up, you almost have me hypnotized.
Watchin’ you bluff then scoopin’ the confetti.
No, I won’t slow down until you’re good and ready,
like a matador bell, it doesn’t end well.
Only to find your tears...paddling with, outracing your fears.
Only to find my tears…
have been raining inside your ears.
I tried to get you out of the sun. (Waaa-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhhh!)
Then I tried to fight you off like a matador.
But, only to find your tears...paddling with, outracing your fears.
Only to find my tears…
I can’t look up, you almost have me hypnotized.
Watchin’ you bluff while scoopin’ the confetti.
No I won’t slow down until you’re good and ready,
like a matador bell, it doesn’t end well.
I can’t look up, you almost have me hypnotized.
Watchin’ you bluff while scoopin’ the confetti.
No I won’t slow down until you’re good and ready,
like a matador bell, it doesn’t end well.
