You say you see what's under me That the gloss has washed away But you're the one whose colour's gone From love to dirty grey Questions come alive in the middle of the day Over and over again Watch me start a fire in the middle of your shade That's why I'm telling you I'm gonna Kiss you off my lips I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man Kiss you off my lips It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment So excuse me a minute while I supply demand Kiss you off these lips of mine Kiss you off for a custom shine Pissed yours truly off this time It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off Spare this child your sideways smile That crack in your veneer Some blue broad will spoil your rod It just takes patience dear They rush you for your life But you'll never beat the game Older and older you get Cruch you like gyre But the gimble's all the same Oh no I think it's happening Kiss you off my lips I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man Kiss you off my lips It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment So excuse me a minute while I supply demand Kiss you off these lips of mine Kiss you off for a custom shine Pissed yours truly off this time It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off
