Tapes 'n Tapes


Kelly the insistor 
Your brother is a blister 
I'll be had if I'm in your dress tonight 

When you go and you're all alone 
Are you still afraid of home 
Do you lie in bed with fright 

Your father said I lost her 
Your brother said I fought her 
But I stood still and I'm in your arms tonight 

And when you rush I'll call your name 
Like Harvard Square holds all inane 
And don't you know I'll be your badger 
And don't be terse and don't be shy 
Just hug my lips and say good lies 
And know that I will be your bail bond 

Mickey the ol' lithper 
Said hey there hey mister 
My cold razor's edge will meet you in the light 

When you go and you're on stage 
Is your heart still filled with rage? 
Do you still fight for lover's rights? 

Challenge is for lovers 
But I run my feet hurt 
So I'll stay here and fight for lover's rights 

And when you rush I'll call your name 
Like Harvard Square holds all inane 
And don't you know I'll be your badger 
And don't be terse and don't be shy 
Just hug my lips and say good lies 
And know that I will be your bail bond 

Oh Kelly don't you go 
Kelly don't you go 
Kelly don't you go 
I want you to know 
That I've been trying, I've been lying 
I've been stealing, I've been hiding 
I will meet you in the grave 
Kelly, Kelly, it's not your right 
To be cheating, fighting and starting life 
When my head and hands are tied to you so tight 
Oh Kelly just tell me one more thing 
Is it mine or is it some other ring 
That you wear as we lie in bed tonight? 

And Kelly, who's the logger? 
Oh, Kelly, who's the logger? 
Oh Kelly, who's the logger who's trees were felled with might? 
And Kelly, hold your water 
Oh Kelly, hold your water 
Oh Kelly, Kelly, hold your water tight 

And when you rush I'll call your name 
Like Harvard Square holds all inane 
And don't you know I'll be your badger 
And don't be terse and don't be shy 
Just hug my lips and say goodbye 
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
