Turn a square

She shone up bright like a knife
Wearing tennis shorts made of stripes
Hand in hand to the grass and we got it right
Got it nice, nice, nice
Just a glimpse of an ankle and I
React like it´s 1805
And I´d swim to the poles just to find the right satellite
It´ll take all of my strength to give up
But you all know I tried
So forget about it, girl
My head´s like a kite
When such a creature I sight
To town!
Where you´re feet leave no prints on the ground
Have I left my home just to whine in this microphone?
It gets worse every time that we talk
Can´t afford to be just one in a flock
But that´s your lot
When you´re after such a well-made lock
Who was classically trained to give up
And my friends know I tried
So forget about it, girl
Even I don´t know why
I can´t just stay the course
Keep my hands on the wheel
Our detractors were right
My head´s like a kite
All my thoughts run astray
And I´m a walking cliche
When such a creature I sight
Wearing tennis shorts made of stripes
Hand in hand to the grass and we got it right
Got it nice, nice, nice
Just a glimpse of an ankle and I
React like it´s 1805
And I´d swim to the poles just to find the right satellite
It´ll take all of my strength to give up
But you all know I tried
So forget about it, girl
My head´s like a kite
When such a creature I sight
To town!
Where you´re feet leave no prints on the ground
Have I left my home just to whine in this microphone?
It gets worse every time that we talk
Can´t afford to be just one in a flock
But that´s your lot
When you´re after such a well-made lock
Who was classically trained to give up
And my friends know I tried
So forget about it, girl
Even I don´t know why
I can´t just stay the course
Keep my hands on the wheel
Our detractors were right
My head´s like a kite
All my thoughts run astray
And I´m a walking cliche
When such a creature I sight
