[Verse 1]
I've called you up four times today already
I got baijou at the Chinese liquor store
Can we connect about ways to get connected?
Or will you run off down smoky corridors?
[Pre-Chorus]
You got me tricked!
You're moving quick
You promise me your time
But baby, you're like...
[Chorus]
Houdini
Always disappearing
Wish I didn't care about your heart escaping, you're like
Houdini
Always disappearing
Wish I didn't care about your heart escaping
I do! (Yes, I do!)
[Verse 2]
I tracked you down through friends and loose acquaintance
I focused hard to spot the little red ball change hands
You know I'm still a recovering heartbreakaholic
If that don't make you pick up the phone, what can?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I read the books
I get good looks
I'm thinking twice next time
'Cuz baby, you're like...
[Chorus]
Houdini
Always disappearing
Wish I didn't care about your heart escaping, you're like
Houdini
Always disappearing
Wish I didn't care about your heart escaping
I do! (Yes, I do!)
[Verse 3]
I played your jerk
You made it work
I'm taking back my lines
'Cuz baby, you're like...
[Chorus]
Houdini
Always disappearing
Wish I didn't care about your heart escaping, you're like
Houdini
Always disappearing
Wish I didn't care about your heart escaping
I do! (Yes, I do!)
Yes, I do!
