This is the 11th and final track on the original release of Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life. It was written and recorded in Oslo. The lyrics appear to describe falling deeply in love with someone and being unable to explain exactly why or how.
[Verse 1]
You’re in the DNA between the molecules
You’re in the bets I place and all the hands I lose
You’re in the subtext and all the overtones
You’re in the telesales that dominate my phone
[Bridge]
We both know that it's time to go
We both know you're going to stay
[Chorus]
I don't know why I like you but I do
I don't know why I like you but I do
Am I just trying to fire a cannon from a canoe?
I don't know why I like you but I do
[Verse 2]
You’re in the cherry cake and swimming in my wine
You’re in the orange juice that I spill at halftime
I’m keeping up to date and you stay misinformed
Just like the cameraman you force to shoot your porn
[Chorus]
I don't know why I like you but I do
I don't know why I like you but I do
Am I just trying to fire a cannon from a canoe?
I don't know why I like you but I do
[Bridge]
We both know that it's time to go
We both know you're going to stay
[Chorus]
I don't know why I like you but I do
I don't know why I like you but I do
Am I just trying to fire a cannon from a canoe?
I don't know why I like you, I don't know why I like you but I do
I don't know why I like you, I don't know why I like you but I do
I don't know why I like you, I don't know why I like you but I do
