lyrics
Lips on Red.
You got your lips on red.
You got your red lips on.
You got your lips on red.
You got your red lips on.
You vacate me i'll Vacate you.
You vacate me i'll vacate you, come on.
I took my gun and baby out to the city and i started licking all of the walls.
I took my gun and baby out to the city and i started licking all of the walls.
HEY! HEY!
Come over to me and put your green lights on.
HEY! HEY!
Come over to me and put your green lights on.
I saw you looking at........(you)
I saw you looking at........(you)
You're sleeping talking sleeping walking equal love machines.
You can turn all the bad love into good love and they'll all sway like trees.
The aeroplane is a place and a trace of where our heads should be ( high )
Now Bitch who you talking to, bitch who you talking to, bitch who you talking to...
Right now?
She washed her face in mud.
Then i fell apart.
I ripped out the song and went back to the start.
HEY! HEY!
Come over to me and put your green lights on.
HEY! HEY!
Come over to me and put your green lights on.
I saw you looking at........(you)
I saw you looking at........(you)
You're sleeping talking sleeping walking equal love machines.
You can turn all the bad love into good love and they'll all sway like trees.
The aeroplane is a place and a trace of where our heads should be ( high )
Now Bitch who you talking to, bitch who you talking to, bitch who you talking to...
Right now?
Please don't grab my hand when i don't wanna dance.
I SAID I DON'T LIKE THAT.
Please don't grab my hand when i don't wanna dance.
I SAID I DON'T LIKE THAT.
You're sleeping talking sleeping walking equal love machines.
You can turn all the bad love into good love and they'll all sway like trees.
The aeroplane is a place and a trace of where our heads should be ( high )
Now Bitch who you talking to, bitch who you talking to, bitch who you talking to...
Right now? Right now? Right now?
RIGHT NOW?
