[Verse 1]
I'd like to tour the '80s
But I got sideswiped and came right to '78
My life is pro creation
Well, if the mood's right, there's some hype, some currency
So, deep breath, deep breath, keep grabbing
Well, I like, my life is pro creation
So I make time to rewind those memories and play
[Chorus]
'Cause you and me make a fine mess
You and me make a fine mess
You're on
[Verse 2]
You get high like you chase the natives
And you tried then to show them your come-and-see face
I like this elevation
The mood's right, the dim light, and we can see them
Deep breath, deep breath, keep grabbing
Well I like, I like to change the station
'Cause these thoughts are those thoughts that cover me in grey
[Chorus]
You and me make a fine mess
You and me make a fine mess
You and me make a fine mess
You're always shattered
[Bridge]
Lately something has come over all of me
My welts all undressed, no longer seem to weep
That no longer meets their needs
I like the stage so please
Holla at The Weeknd for me
[Outro]
You and me, you and me make a fine mess
'Cause you and me make a fine mess
You're always shattered
Fine Mess was written by Daniel Kessler & Sam Fogarino & Paul Banks.
Fine Mess was produced by Kaines & Tom A.D. & Dave Fridmann.
It’s about a sanguine and starry pair, buoyed and dashed alike by their own dreams and appetites."
