lyrics

I know you better than I now myself
You know me better than anybody else
Floating hot balloon, good brown leather shoes, rubber bands and glue
Dirty sticky filth, lemons in your milk, worms to sew your silk

Pin the tail on the donkey
Dance the two step while i play honky-tonky
Sip a whisky baby when you're cranky
I think about somebody else when we hanky-panky

I need you more than I need anybody else
You need me more than you'll admit to yourself
Purple maroon and teal, turn right at the wagon wheel, is any of this really real?
Pinch you 'til you swoon, out comes the wooden spoon, what am i gonna do?

I'm the tail on the donkey
Dance the two step while i play honky-tonky
Sip a whisky baby when you're cranky
I think about somebody else when we hanky-panky

I know you better than I know myself
You know me better than anybody else
If I hated you and you hated me would that mean that neither of us was worth anything?
You're sweet like pink sugar cotton candy, and I only wish you were less like me.

I know you better than I know myself
You know me better than anybody else
If I hated you and you hated me would that mean that neither of us was worth anything?
You're sweet like pink sugar cotton candy, and I only wish you were less like me.
