Lyrics
She told me “open your mouth”
She said “I’ve got a surprise.”
And so I opened it wide,
and then she crawled inside
She’s on the tip of my tongue
and on the top of my thighs
And if I searched a thousand miles I’d be dying to find
between my fingers
She leaves
then she’s lingers
If she’s gonna go
well then I’m going with her
I know that I won’t forget
She was sweet like honey
But all I can taste is the blood in my mouth
And the bitterness in goodbye
Dripping like honey
Down the back of my throat and out the front of my mind.
And now she’s impatient
I’m complacent
with just a little
taste of wasting time
looking for honey
but she stings like she means it
she’s mean and she’s mine
We’re out and about
without a reason or rhyme
And now she’s dancing on a table
and she spins on a dime
she’s hell in a basket
Just making a racket
I love every second
It’s fucking fantastic
good things aren’t easy to get
I know that I won’t regret
She was sweet like honey
And all I can taste is the blood in my mouth
And the bitterness in goodbye
Dripping like honey
Down the back of my throat and on the front of my mind.
And well she’s impatient
I’m complacent
with just a little
taste of wasting time
looking for honey
but she stings like she means it
she’s mean and she’s mine
between my fingers
She leaves
then she’s lingers
If she’s gonna go
well then I’m going with her
I know that I won’t forget
She was sweet like honey
But all I can taste is the blood in my mouth
And the bitterness in goodbye
Dripping like honey
Down the back of my throat and on the front of my mind.
And well she’s impatient
And I’m complacent
with just a little
taste of wasting time
looking for honey
but she stings like she means it
she’s mean and she’s mine
