Whiskers

[Verse 1]
We're playing house, we're fading love
We're making promises, the ring you gave me fits like a glove
But it's not long before my spell wears off
What once was charming is just aggravating and a little bit off

[Chorus 1]
But oh, I know that this won't last
Just look at my past
It'll be a heart attack, another love with the flu
But for now, spin me 'round this too

[Verse 2]
We get drinkin', swillin' browns 'til we can't see straight
I see I've got you wrapped up in my spell of rattlesnakes
Cigarettes cloud our lungs and good choices
We lean in close, tell secrets in hushed voices

[Chorus]
But oh, I know that this won't last
Just look at my past
It'll be my big-mouthed refusal to be a lady
And don't forget, I'm the boss of me

[Outro]
Yes you'll love me, but only for a while
And when you leave, you'll take every dime
I'll try, oh I'll try
'Cause who knows, it could work next time
