In summertime, I'll make you mine
Tame you like a butterfly
I never learned my lines

I always try to lie
Keep my face far behind
I like it in the dark, the dark

A boom, a crash
They never look back
Laugh at the clown with the broken neck
I'm right behind your back

Paying the thimble
Get out of jail
Watching the world spin from my red hotel, my red hotel

On starry nights, I'll flash a light
Straight through the heavens and into God's eyes
I pray he'll get this
To you
