Brooke Fraser - Betty lyrics

rate me

<!-- start of lyrics -->

You got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart

You got your YSL kicks and a red birthmark

In the shape of Canada

That you try to keep a secret

You got a quick clack walk and a cold hard stare

And if your eyes could talk they'd say they just don't care

Before they wander off

To hide inside their sockets

You've got your scars and you've got your birthmarks

You've got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey

You've got your secrets

You've got your regrets

Darling, we all do

You got a fool-proof plan for a lonely life

You won't be no one's daughter and no drunk man's wife

If a wife at all

It's a silly institution

Or so you keep insisting

You've got your scars and you've got your birthmarks

You've got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey

You've got your secrets

You've got your regrets

Darling, we all do

You're cool coy, 'bout to stroll, very hip

It's you that's hidden by the expectations

We want to see you, won't you show us where to start?

You're talking trash with your red liquor lips

It's you that tickle in the conversation

Sweet Betty, won't you show us who you are?

You've got your scars and you've got your birthmarks

You've got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey

You've got your secrets

You've got your regrets

Darling, we all do

You've got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
