lyrics

I saw your eyes and I settled down
The two of us can’t be this way
It’s already hard enough

You’re acting out like an amature
Trying to grab all that you can
I don’t think you even care

It’s time to leave
And you don’t want to
But you didn’t want to come

And if it wasn’t your idea
Turn up your nose and walk away
It’s driving me up a wall

We’re just starting out
I can’t lose my cool
Gotta learn to slow down

Play without a clock
Stop and count to ten
Another dose of patience

We are aware of your every need
I said I'm all in though you can't agree
Pleading the fifth means we get to sleep
No attitude detected no not a peep

You're up and down like a mountain range
Feels like I'm always climbing up
But you didn't even care

It's time to sleep
but you don't want to
I'm calling shenanigans

Now I can picture a couple years into the future
You'll be hanging on me looking for some direction
When all the things you'll ever need
Are laid before you at your feet
There's still a sense that things are not complete
And I, I hope I don't let you down

And I remembered how you were always faking
While twisting raw emotions into some kind of shaking
Now confidence and rugged ideals
Uphold your cynical locomotions
I'll let you explain away the details
So black out you adorable drunkard
It's a complex world after all

It's surgical precision
Such blissful anticipation
Of making these decisions
It seems we're in position to impress
Soothing your distress
I used to get crazy with my friends
Now I'm just glad to see a normal life right in front me
It's Bedtime for Bonzo
