You Should Be
I know whatever I say
You'll take it wrong
'Cause you can only put yourself on the line so many times
Before you're coming on too strong
Baby you should be a scientist
'Cause you're always so precise
You say you see through it all like it's translucent
Damn that must be nice
There's no one left on this city street
Except me and one other pedestrian
By now your head has fallen where it'll be 'til the morning
It's distasteful that you even let me in
Baby you should be a lawyer
'Cause you know just what to say
You'd make a terrible fucking doctor
'Cause you don't make me feel okay
Now that the night has fallen
I feel a chill run down my spine
My master said, "To thine own self be true
And you'll pretty much be fine."
But I can't help but dwell on you
You are anchored in my thoughts
You awaken my mind
But you tie my tongue in knots
Baby you should be a soldier
'Cause you know just how to fight
Maybe I should just grow older
And tell the one next to me it'll be alright
You'll take it wrong
'Cause you can only put yourself on the line so many times
Before you're coming on too strong
Baby you should be a scientist
'Cause you're always so precise
You say you see through it all like it's translucent
Damn that must be nice
There's no one left on this city street
Except me and one other pedestrian
By now your head has fallen where it'll be 'til the morning
It's distasteful that you even let me in
Baby you should be a lawyer
'Cause you know just what to say
You'd make a terrible fucking doctor
'Cause you don't make me feel okay
Now that the night has fallen
I feel a chill run down my spine
My master said, "To thine own self be true
And you'll pretty much be fine."
But I can't help but dwell on you
You are anchored in my thoughts
You awaken my mind
But you tie my tongue in knots
Baby you should be a soldier
'Cause you know just how to fight
Maybe I should just grow older
And tell the one next to me it'll be alright
