One Liner

If I got you just what you wanted
Would that make me feel less haunted?
I heard that wanting is wrong but
I'm sure I'd like to be wanted

When you say the gilded one-liner
I laugh with both of my shiners
You got it right where you want it
It's just my fix, I keep calling

So keep calling
So keep calling

Could that rain be telling me something?
Should I act less like a shut in?
I think I might be moving
Moonshine, I'm drunk on my musing

When you say the gilded one-liner
You got guts and damn, am I wired
Clothesline, hanging up naked
Never had a problem faking

I don't really care if it's four in the morning
Call me up and tell me that you want me
Hit me with that bad news first
When you're at your best, I'm at my worst

I don't really care if it's four in the morning
Call me up and tell me that you want me
Hit me with that bad news first
When you're at your best, I'm at my worst

I'm dripping dry, getting by
I'll be drinking all my clothes off
Can I just get some sleep?
Do like I said, fool me twice
Something's missing and I'm bored now
Grab the rope, pal

Tied up to both of my bedposts
It's a sight to see, a view almost
Sweet thing is making me sour
Keep it at a hundred miles an hour

I'm getting worse directions
Hit the ramp but missed the connection
Too late for any objections
Ain't got the spine for corrections

I don't really care if it's four in the morning
Call me up and tell me that you want me
Hit me with that bad news first
When you're at your best, I'm at my worst

I don't really care if it's four in the morning
Call me up and tell me that you want me
Hit me with that bad news first
When you're at your best, I'm at my worst
