Freelance Whales - Kilojoules lyrics

rate me

Well I've been making

Some cold calculations

Regarding our body heat

It's not easy --

Believe me

You liken me to a vampire

My left hand was wearing

fake plastic teeth

All winter

And taking you for all you were worth

Well I'm afraid I'm not qualified

to do any of these things for you

Well I'm afraid I'm not gonna

give you back any of those kilojoules

The late nights and weekends

Our hearts only run slowly

On the local track

So I've arranged for your

phobias to be performed by a string quartet

You shoot me one of those glances

I need to interpret

I've been feeling

Well rested, and healthy

Well I'm afraid I'm not qualified

to do any of these things for you

And I'm afraid I'm not gonna

give you back any of those kilojoules

The late nights and weekends

Our hearts only go so slowly

On a local track

So I've arranged for your

phobias to be performed by a string quartet
