"Glitterbug" lyrics - THE WOMBATS

THE WOMBATS
"Glitterbug"

This joystick town is playing games under my skin, oh no
We're scuba diving but the sharks are circling in, oh no
I'm her mosquito, she's my killer bee
Together we're something alone we can't be

[Pre-Chorus:]
So next time instead of going home
Why don't you just come close?

[Chorus:]
Closer to me
Let's see how far we can go
Let's see how lost we could be
Come close to me
Come close to me

We're snapping padlocks on the Pont Neuf again, oh no
I yearn to detox but I'm retoxing again, oh no
I'm her side view mirror, she's my blind spot
Together we're something alone we are not

[Pre-Chorus:]
So next time instead of going home
Why don't you just come close?

[Chorus:]
Closer to me
Let's see how far we can go
Let's see how lost we could be
Come close to me
Closer to me
Let's see how far we can go
Let's see how lost we could be
Come close to me

[Bridge:]
But don't compare, compare me to them
I'm an opera, they're just EDM
And in two more drinks I fear this town will shut
No more excuses, come here, glitterbug
And I'll never care for what they think I'll say
I'm an ocean bed and they're just motorways
And in one more drink I fear this night is done
No more excuses, come here, glitterbug

[Outro:]
Come here glitterbug
Come close to me
Come close to me
(Glitterbug! No more excuses)
Come close to me
(Glitterbug! No more excuses)
Come close to me
