Someone that I met but I hardly knew   He said that everyone loves a defective heart   He'd parted ways with diction, this was late last night   He see me getting your affection and it proved he was right   The way I stared off thinking that all was sound      Anyone that I knew woulda called me found      You can break my legs, you can kick me downstairs   But there ain't no getting over Joanie Hale-Maier   Just let me walk away   Ah let me walk away      And then the place ignite   It's in my face and I'm   Behind the bassline      Someone that I knew but I hardly met   Told me, it's hopeless I'm a slut for the New York Times   She made my heart soft, worn an aiguillette on her arm   She never been to Texas, never heard of King Kong   And it'd been so long since I'd been suitably high      So we did an Airborne, settled in for the night      Tell me sweetness don't somehow reach your heart   Until you fall flat down and you can't wait to start   This is the one cold truth we've all of us known   As I think to myself this could be easy or I could face it alone      And then the place ignite   All out of grace and I'm   Behind the bassline
