Taos Lyrics - Mines - Menomena

oh I'll bet I know what you like 

at least think I know what you might 

I'm not the most cocksure guy 

but I get more bold with every smile 

so please, show me your teeth, I'll show mine 

I sure hope our P's and Q's don't mind 

cause I've been alone quite some time 

and I've got to scratch this itch of mine 

and I think I know what you know 

I'm not that smooth but I'm not blind 

the hours pass us by as gin slips slowly 

past our tingling spines, cheeks warm and glowing 

I'm a social mess but not yet slurring 

the words that come to rest upon my luring tongue 

oh I'll bet I know what you like 

at least think I know what you might 

I'm not the most cocksure guy 

but I still sure fight the good hard fight 

try as I may, try I might 

I'll ever scratch this itch of mine 

we've all got our vices, this one's mine 

so I might not smoke but I get high 

underneath this fleshy robe lies a beast with no control 

I fed it once look how it's grown 

oh my god, bring me peace from this wolf covered in fleece 

I can't shake loose from its teeth 

oh my god, set me free 

I have no ability to cut my leash and walk away 

with every passing night my conscience lessens 

and seems to pacify these guilt filled sessions 

now I'm a social pest but not yet willing 

to put my laws to rest till I'm done filling these holes 

I'll bet I know what you like 

at least think I know what you might 

and I'm not the most cocksure man (?) 

I take what I get and get what I can
