[Verse 1] I am an American aquarium drinker I assassin down the avenue Im hiding out in the big city blinking What was I thinking when I let go of you? [Verse 2] Lets forget about the tonguetied lightning Lets undress just like crosseyed strangers This is not a joke, so please stop smiling What was I thinking when I said it didnt hurt? [Verse 3] I want to glide through those brown eyes dreaming Take it from the inside, baby hold on tight You were so right when you said Ive been drinking What was I thinking when we said good night? [Verse 4] I want to hold you in the Bibleblack predawn Youre quite a quiet domino, bury me now Take off your BandAid because I dont believe in touchdowns What was I thinking when we said hello? [Verse 5] Id always thought that if I held you tightly Youd always love me like you did back then Then I fell asleep and the city kept blinking What was I thinking when I let you back in? [Refrain] I am trying to break your heart I am trying to break your heart But still, Id be lying if I said it wasnt easy I am trying to break your heart [Verse 6] Disposable Dixiecup drinking I assassin down the avenue Im hiding out in the big city blinking What was I thinking when I let go of you? [Outro] ... Loves you Im the man who loves you
