Shellfish Mademoiselle

How could you?
How could you?
How could you?
How could you?

Our icecream's not melted yet
Why don't you conceive?
And go turn the heating up baby
By a couple of degrees
You and me in my kitchen

If you didn't like the heat
You think you playing it cool but you're tripping
You gotta let yourself breathe
Just because, you want go go on denying yourself
You just microdose and I long to see how high we can get

When will it ever be our good time?
Is it ever gonna be the right time?
How dare you sentence me to a lifetime without dancing?
When my body's made for feeling
I keep a good time, I keep a good time

I'm falling in love with you
I'm head over heels
I know, I know, I know I shouldn't really be dancing
At the time like this
Hoping I can be selfish mademoiselle
You gave it a name, I'm wearing it well
Just wipe out all of the pain (all of the pain)
And everyone cries, and I feel the same
You better make a time to make this up to me I'm waiting in line to get you on your feet
I will have to make it a movie, if you wanted that, I'm already lost in the mood

When will it ever be our good time?
Is it ever gonna be the right time?
How dare you sentence me to a lifetime without dancing?
But I'm already lost in the mood (I'm already lost in the mood)

I'll be long gone, long gone
I'll be long gone, life is too short
I'll be long gone, long gone
I'll be long gone, life is too short

I'll be long gone, long gone
I'll be long gone, life is too short
I'll be long gone, long gone
I'll be long gone, life is too short
I'll be long gone, long gone
I'll be long gone
