Psychedelic Switch Lyrics
[Intro]
It's like a psychedelic, it's like a psychedelic
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
It's like a psychedelic, it's like a psychedelic
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
It's like a psychedelic, it's like a psychedelic
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
It's like a psychedelic, it's like a psychedelic
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
[Verse 1]
I think all my life, I never met anybody like you
Sunrise all the time when I touch you
[Pre-Chorus]
It's like I'm wakin' up in a euphoria
My insecurities are things I never was
I was a sad, sad song before we met
But, boy, your love is such a trip
[Chorus]
It's like a psychedelic switch
Don't wake me 'cause I'm lucid dreamin'
Meditatin' on your lips
'Cause, baby, I'd be satisfied forever
With a couple years of this
Make me feel like in my birthday suit with you
I'm puttin' on the ritz (It's like a psychedelic)
It's like a psychedelic switch
(It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch)
[Verse 2]
I'm in paradise, I never met anybody like you
I don't wanna hide when I'm with you
[Pre-Chorus]
It's like I'm wakin' up in a euphoria
My insecurities are things I never was
It's like my whole life now is makin' sense
I'm on the wildest trip and this
[Chorus]
It's like a psychedelic switch
Don't wake me 'cause I'm lucid dreamin'
Meditatin' on your lips
'Cause, baby, I'd be satisfied forever
With a couple years of this
Make me feel like in my birthday suit with you
I'm puttin' on the ritz
It's like a psychedelic switch
[Bridge]
You feel just like home
I'm not scared to show ya
You feel just like home
I'm not scared to show ya
You feel just like home
I'm not scared to show ya
Yeah, all my insecurities can't stand the way you look at me
You lovin' me is hard to resist
[Break]
It's like a psychedelic switch
It's like a psychedelic switch
It's like a psychedelic switch
It's like a psychedelic switch
(It's like a psychedelic, it's like a psychedelic)
(It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch)
[Chorus]
It's like a psychedelic switch
Don't wake me 'cause I'm lucid dreamin'
Meditatin' on your lips
'Cause, baby, I'd be satisfied forever
With a couple years of this
Make me feel like in my birthday suit with you
I'm puttin' on the ritz
It's like a psychedelic switch
[Outro]
It's like a ps—, it's like a ps—
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
It's like a ps—, it's like a ps—
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
It's like a ps—, it's like a ps—
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch
It's like a ps—, it's like a ps—
It's like a ps—, it's like a psychedelic sw-switch

If you hear the beginning of ‘Psychedelic Switch,’ it’s still dance-y, but it’s more slow.
