about

I’m a goof around you. I can’t walk right when you’re in the room. Nothing is in tune. This is my problem. Even the children are faking like they care. One part mixed metaphor, one part noisy rock hymn for things doomed to break. I’m sending you morse code love letters in my mind.

MY HEART IS A WURLITZER
copyright 2006 john common music

my heart is a wurlitzer, you've got to beat it
it makes a better sound if you mistreat it
i want to tell to you that so you would know it’s your fault

it's like a bicycle and when you ride it
you've got to pedal hard so you don't crash it
and it's only got one lonely gear -- really fast

i don't want to see you when you're out, hanging with your boys
it makes me kind of crazy just to think you used me like your... dog

it’s a wurlitzer
it’s a wurlitzer
it’s a wurlitzer
