Mr Loverman
Lyrics
I'm headed straight for the floor
The alcohol's served its tour
And it's headed straight for my skin
Leaving me daft and dim
I've got this shake in my legs
Shaking the thoughts from my head
But who put these waves in the door?
I'm cracking out
I pour
I'm Mr. Loverman
And I miss my lover, man
I'm Mr. Loverman
Oh, and I miss my lover
The ways in which you talk to me
Have me wishing I were gone
The ways that you say my name
Have me running on and on
Oh, I'm cramping up, I'm cramping up
But you're cracking up, you're cracking up
I'm Mr. Loverman
And I miss my lover, man
I'm Mr. Loverman
Oh, and I miss my lover
I'm shattered now
I'm spilling out
Upon this linoleum ground
I'm reeling in my brain again
Before it can get back to you
Oh, what am I suposed to do
Without you?
I'm Mr. Loverman
And I miss my lover, man
I'm Mr. Loverman
Oh, and I miss my lover
I'm Mr. Loverman
And I miss my lover, man
I'm Mr. Loverman
And I miss my lover
