The Fratellis - Six Days in June Lyrics

Well I get down so I can get up
And I break down so I can break up
I was thinking about, thinking about, thinking
But it only made my head swim
And if I walked with you a while
You would make it worth my while
And proceeded to tear me limb from limb

The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
Well how do you know I'm not one?
You told me if I kissed you
It would be easier in the long run
You said you'd give me a reason
But you know I've already got one

I slow down so I can speed up
(Yes it does, yes it does, oh it does)
And I wind down just so I can wind up
(Yes it does, yes it does, oh it does)
I was thinking about, thinking about, thinking
But it only made my brain freeze
If I walked with you a while
You would make it worth my while
Oh, how did you know that I love tricks like these?

The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
Well how do you know I'm not one?
You told me if I kissed you
It would be easier in the long run
You said you'd give me a reason
But you know I've already got one

And if I could paint you a picture
It would be nothing less than tragic
I would trade a lifetime for a moment now of magic
I would kick the bucket if it didn't sound so drastic
But my feet are made of tombstones
And my dreams are made of plastic

Oh yeah, oh yeah
I was way out of tune
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Just a joke, a cartoon
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh I did not swoon
Oh yeah, oh yeah
For six days in June

Oh yeah, oh yeah
I was getting down low
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Baby, blow by blow
Oh yeah, oh yeah
A train wreck honeymoon
Oh yeah, oh yeah
For six days in June

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
