Petroleum
Imagine if I had to give you my soul
In a moment when my soul was asleep
For it happens sometimes
Through no fault of our own
It's just a momentary blip in the passing of time
It's not a sign that the embers of passion are dying
My bones burn
And the brain that's controlling them
Knows that the soul needs petroleum
That's how it goes
Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
I'm grateful in ways I could never explain
In a moment I cannot escape
But I can't phone it in (no, we can't phone it in)
No, I could never begin (he could never begin)
Oh, I could never tell you how I'm feeling, if I'm not feeling it
It's a standard that I set myself to ruin relationships
My bones burn
And the brain that's controlling them
Knows that the soul needs petroleum
That's how it goes
Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
And if I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it I would
(It never stops)
(Perhaps Daddy has something to do with that)
My bones burn
And the brain that's controlling them
Knows that the soul needs petroleum
That's how it goes
Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
My bones burn
And the brain that's controlling them
Knows that the soul needs petroleum
That's how it goes
Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
My bones burn (my bones burn)
And if I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it I would
That's how it goes
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
In a moment when my soul was asleep
For it happens sometimes
Through no fault of our own
It's just a momentary blip in the passing of time
It's not a sign that the embers of passion are dying
My bones burn
And the brain that's controlling them
Knows that the soul needs petroleum
That's how it goes
Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
I'm grateful in ways I could never explain
In a moment I cannot escape
But I can't phone it in (no, we can't phone it in)
No, I could never begin (he could never begin)
Oh, I could never tell you how I'm feeling, if I'm not feeling it

My bones burn
And the brain that's controlling them

Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
And if I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it I would

That's how it goes
Boom-boom, ba-ba-ba-boom
My bones burn (my bones burn)
And if I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it
If I knew how to control it I would
That's how it goes
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
Hey-huh, hey-hey-hey-huh
