All To Myself Lyrics - Singles - Philosopher Kings

I'd start with the boys that hang at the pier 

Like bats in the night get tangled in your hair 

I'd take away the weekend shore leave lovers 

That flood the ports with drunken tales of far away 

I'd take away the Eiffel tower 

I'd take away the port of Spain 

I'll take your yellow coat 

No more romantic walks in the pouring rain 

Then I'd make washboard, wind-blown 

Sea-side, serenading, prep school boys disappear 

That flock in the summer like gulls to the beach 

And pick at your heart like the garbage on the street 

I'll take away all the things 

That make you look away from me 

I'd take away everything 

Then I'd have you all to myself 

I'd take away the guy with the monkey wrench smile 

He'll steal your heart away and make a Minnesota mile 

Like a corner store crook on a prison break 

Or a porno queen in a party cake 

I'd take away the Spanish steps 

I'd take away the Golden Gate 

I'll take away everything 

Just to have you all to myself 

All to myself, yeah 

I never thought it'd get this bad inside of me 

I never thought that I'd be so consumed with jealousy 

I need you every night and every day in bed 

These thoughts keep spinning in my head 

Then I'd make the big screen, battle-scarred 

Bold-faced, leading man lone star heroes disappear 

That fill your heart with thoughts of being swept away 

But that's a part a man like me could never play 

I'll take away all the things 

That make you look away from me 

I'd take away everything 

Just to have you all to myself 

All to myself 

Oh let's make it funky guys 

Yeah, I know you can do it 

James, James, oh yeah 

Bass, oh yeah 

Do you, do you like it? Yeah
