You're a Fox

I've got a crush on you
Because you're fine
Your breath is a wicked wind
Blowing my mind
Your mouth moves in and out of view
Your hair tossed to the side
And I don't know which is lovelier
What's hidden, or what hides

You put every strand in place
And you smooth the folds of your dress
And you sit just like a lady, and everyone's impressed
But I don't know who you think you're fooling in those human clothes
You're a fox, and everyone knows

Ah, those windows to your soul
Are just the skylight to my cell
I'm just one more poor joe
Fallen down your well
Oh, but that man you keep around
Handsome devil, charming too
I'd probably want him
If I had anything left after you

But when I see you coming, I freeze still as the air
I know my clock is running, and I haven't got a prayer
You're sure to sense my terror, if you only use your nose
You're a fox, and everyone knows

What's more lethal than a siren
A siren with a microphone
We're a crowded hall of soldiers
Silenced by an infant's moan
And I don't believe in spirits
But you've spooked me more than once
That time we talked for twenty minutes
Shook me like a damn seance

But all of it's recorded, so I know it's not just me
See, I've taken notes, done interviews, and all of us agree
The doctor you ruined, the saint you drowned, the explorer you froze
You're a fox, and everyone knows
