Red Velvet

She wears only (red velvet)
Drives me crazy (red velvet)
Not in the good way (red velvet)
Orange juice and toothpaste (red velvet)
Sour milk and cocaine (red velvet)
Here comes the panic...

Flashback to the rat that lived inside the birdhouse
That you built in wood-shop in the ninth grade
And the cat you bought won't kill the rat 'cause
It's now a pacifist
And all the rage, it boils beneath
The paint outside your window when you
See the feathers poking out the rat mouth
Oh my god, it's wearing...

(Red velvet) Oh my, goddamn
(Red velvet) Makes my hips crawl
(Red velvet) Straight to the exit
(Red velvet) Drives me manic
(Red velvet) She loves to flaunt it
(Red velvet) Haunting panic...

Flashback to the time when you played Marco Polo at the bus stop
And you ran mouth-first into the pole
And knocked your buck teeth on the blacktop
All the kids they laugh and point at your blood mouth
Two teeth are missing
Then you see the broken teeth
They glisten like a velvet christening

(Red velvet) She wears only
(Red velvet) I gotta learn to
(Red velvet) Just embrace it
