"39 Up"

it's not what it's about
sleeping with every smile in view
'cause you'll come to find out
i've got 39 up on you
just 'cause he buys me drinks
makes me no superman
with a dazzling red cape
thinking i can work his muscles
just 'cause i got a plan
and assume it'll take shape

he plays my all time favorite
from the jukebox on the right
hoping that this and a toned down kiss
will convince me to stay the night
but i make them come to me
in hopes they can catch a fish
and by the time it hits three in the 'morn
i'll have granted their fantasized wish

this is most assuredly what it's about
sleeping with the enemy in view
making folds in sheets of a hotel room
rethinking before starting
if you only knew
that my pulse was racing high
the water overflowed the wet bar's sink
pushing more of himself onto me
then afterwards, writing my number in ink

makes you think
just makes you wanna think

i watch you puffing your breath
i watch you puffing your cigarette
i then watch you draw a bath
but you haven't asked me to leave yet
you tell me to pass you your shirt
and i do as i am asked
are you sure you don't want me to leave?
because all you have to do is ask

makes you think
just makes you wanna think
