Clasping Venus's Looking Glass
Not sure how you got lost
I just know how they found you
Lying in a pit with nobody around you
Here is what it costs, this is what they charged you
Hollow wallet in your pocket
Staring at the ocean it's the lounge view
Well baby, you can beg, you can ask
She's clasping Venus's looking glass
She's so sweet, she's a treat
Here's where you mistaken
This is where you stand corrected
With your Egyptian silk pillowcase
And your lavender disinfectant
Here's the song you sang
Whose lyrics now escape you
Drove a little up the coast, and then an hour west
And now he's got the lake view
Standing in the elevator, I couldn't breathe because the perfume
And the talk was much too loud and so I may of misheard you
I think it was something along the lines of, "baby where do we get off"
But I think I mistook the "we", for "you", and I was truly misled but
Too sweet to be a midnight snack
She's clasping Venus's looking glass
Too sweet
Lying in a blanket, all glass window apartment
Said he's in the movies, so she asked him what he starred in
Shot into the ocean, the shape of a guitar pick
And if she cannot prove it, she'll still make sure you love it
Well, here's another thing that she told me not to do
When you take my rose, don't get a thorn stuck on you
And if my glass hits my ring, you will come and please me
It takes way too much patience to be waiting for you to
The one who lies can't pursue truth
So if she clasps you I think Venus will move too
The day turned black
She'll always come back
I just know how they found you
Lying in a pit with nobody around you
Here is what it costs, this is what they charged you
Hollow wallet in your pocket
Staring at the ocean it's the lounge view
Well baby, you can beg, you can ask
She's clasping Venus's looking glass
She's so sweet, she's a treat
Here's where you mistaken
This is where you stand corrected
With your Egyptian silk pillowcase
And your lavender disinfectant
Here's the song you sang
Whose lyrics now escape you
Drove a little up the coast, and then an hour west
And now he's got the lake view
Standing in the elevator, I couldn't breathe because the perfume
And the talk was much too loud and so I may of misheard you
I think it was something along the lines of, "baby where do we get off"
But I think I mistook the "we", for "you", and I was truly misled but
Too sweet to be a midnight snack
She's clasping Venus's looking glass
Too sweet
Lying in a blanket, all glass window apartment
Said he's in the movies, so she asked him what he starred in
Shot into the ocean, the shape of a guitar pick
And if she cannot prove it, she'll still make sure you love it
Well, here's another thing that she told me not to do
When you take my rose, don't get a thorn stuck on you
And if my glass hits my ring, you will come and please me
It takes way too much patience to be waiting for you to
The one who lies can't pursue truth
So if she clasps you I think Venus will move too
The day turned black
She'll always come back
