Pressed lips and tender hips

Turnin' in my head

Writing poems in a corner booth

That I'd die if she read

Seeing her in but a silver cross

Lying on her bed

No one can save us from Kim the waitress

No one can save us but Kim the waitress

Nobody can save us but Kim the waitress

Always turns me on

Sometimes she comes with coffee

Leaning over pouring

I'd like to gently pull her to me

Kiss her with no warning

Seeing her some sunny Sunday morning

(32OO33)

She doesn't come around anymore

And that bothers me

And that bothers me

Yeah, it bothers me

Though I don't stand a ghost of a chance with her

She's pretty (and that bothers me)

She's pretty (and that bothers me)

So pretty (and that bothers me)

And it bothers me

No one can save us

No one can save us

Nobody can save us

Enjoy! Send comments/feedback my way!
