Rhythm & Blues Alibi Lyrics - Liquid Skin - Gomez

You can write your tunes with rhythm and blues as your alibi 

You can sell your soul and lay the blame all on the passers-by 

You shake your body on the TV screen 

It seems to me, you'd try anything twice 

Swing it out and use it as your aphrodisiac 

You can give it to me, to me, plain to see that I'll give it you back 

You let it flow, let it go, there's nothing to it 

Anyone can try anything twice, try anything twice 

Chasing after stories that have already been told 

Cannot look old Son House in the eyes 

I know where you carry such a fragile load 

But I've got yours and you've got mine 

It's a rhythm and blues alibi 

You can take a trip through your juke joint smoke-filled paradise 

You can give it your all 'cause you are walking a fine, fine line, la 

You shake your booty on the TV screen 

Seems to me, you'd try anything twice, you'd try anything twice 

Well, let me hear you now
