The Wombats - Your Body Is a Weapon lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Sometimes I like to go uptown

Where flashy people flash around

It's extortionate & I don't care

You can taste the pretense in the air

And I wonder what u wear tonight

The shiny black dress with the slit at the thigh

Is this such fantasy that I should think

Someone like u could luv a creep like me

(Chorus)

Your body is a weapon, luv

And it makes me wanna cry

My body is a temple of doom

Doomed not to be by ur side

(Verse 2)

I like my job when I do it well

It's freelance work & it pays like hell

But I can get us a place with one bedroom

Who needs a friend when I got u?

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

And I don't come here for the exclusivity

I just come here for the view

And the minuscule chance of some close proximity

Or an awkward conversation with u, that'd be cool

(Chorus)

(Outro x3)

Someone protect me from the one I luv

Someone protect me from the one I luv

Someone protect me from the one I luv

Someone protect me from the one I, one I luv
