Burgies, Basics And You Lyrics
I am stupid you are perfect
I am danger you are safe
I've been drinking from this bottle
For at least a couple days
Every time you walk in a room
Angels blindly follow you
You are kind and sincere but so few
Take me downtown to the gutters
Where I am one step away
Between making enough money
To make my daughters feel safe
I have ruined all the good things in my life
But there you are
Stay with me I am built from all your parts
And I don't recall the first time
That I locked my eyes with yours
But I remember seeing double
Outside the liquor store
There were two of you
So beautiful I couldn't even talk
I tried to sweep you off your feet
But you couldn't walk

Let's get back now to the present
Where your living in a world
Where you don't want me for comfort
You just need your little girls
That's okay ‘cause I am looking
But I don't have sight to see
Maybe I cannot change because I am me
And you do not love the person
That you met that sunny day
I am no longer on your path
But it seems I'm in your way
There were two of you so beautiful
I couldn't even talk
I tried to sweep you off your feet
But you couldn't walk
