lyrics

“Sweet Trouble”

VERSE ONE
I finally got you talking, but your story wasn’t straight
It was swerving all over the road like it was running late
Those lies you tell, yeah you tell ‘em so well
Oh what sweet trouble we could make

VERSE TWO
You lost yourself in discourse, you tried to make your case
But the news was bad today, I could read it on your face
Those lies you tell, yeah you tell ‘em so well
Oh what sweet trouble we could make

MIDDLE 8
What I propose tonight, after a couple cups of wine
Let’s combine our assembly lines so we’re making double
It’s clear to me, we’d be a model of efficiency
Provided we’ll be making trouble

VERSE THREE
You finally got me talking, but I didn’t take the bait
You said you were getting tired, I said, well it’s getting late
Those lies we tell, yeah we tell ‘em so well
Oh what sweet trouble we could make

MIDDLE 8
What I propose tonight, after a couple cups of wine
Let’s combine our assembly line so we’re making double
It’s clear to me, we’d be a model of efficiency
Provided we’ll be making trouble

OUTTRO
So let’s see what we could do, if we mixed me with you
I bet we could start some trouble
