Your sycamore smile Makes me go the extra mile Her mola**es mouth Makes me think I'm living in the old south Buried under a confederate flag And a whole world of prejudice So baby, if it's between you and her I don't even need to confer I hope you know by now I choose you Sure, there were promises Heavy as a zoo of hippopotamuses She's your best friend She's told you all of them I know, but do you, do you know Sometimes the truth is not the truth? Or say some good things turn bad in time Like the deception of a rhyme, or this line
It's not what I knew but what I know I want to be with you O the horizon is on fire The cartoon clown walks the wire The thrill of the chase Is wasted by this devilish pace I can't keep up, when you pull your love But I'm walking towards you just the same So slow down and sweeten your tone Can't wait to get you alone One thing in life's forever pure I choose you If it's between a brick wall and love that's sure I'm walking towards you, baby Towards you and away from her
