THE FRATELLIS
"Six Days In June"

Well, I get down so I can get up
And I break down so I can break up
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
And went and made my head swim
And if I walked with you awhile
You would make it worth my while
And proceeded to tear me limb from limb

The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
But how do you know I'm not one
You told me if I kissed you it'd be easier in the long run
You said you'd give me a reason but you know I've already got one

I slow down so I can speed up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does)
And I wind down so I can wind up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does)
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
But it only made my brain freeze
And if I walked with you awhile
You would make it worth my while
How did you know I love tricks like these

The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
Well, how do you know I'm not one
You told me if I kissed you it would be easier in the long run
You said you'd give me a reason but you know I've already got one

And if I could paint you a picture it'd be nothing less than tragic
I would trade a lifetime for a moment now of magic
I would kick the bucket if it didn't sound so drastic
But my feet are made of tombstones and my dreams are made of plastic

(Oh yeah, oh yeah) I was way out of tune
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) Just a joke, a cartoon
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) Oh, I did not swoon
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) For six days in June

(Oh yeah, oh yeah) I was getting down low
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) Baby, blow by blow
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) A trainwreck honeymoon
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) For six days in June

(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
