[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]
Oh, come and stay with me for a while
The ballerina is cramping my style
The lookalike a' Stevie Nicks' is got a load of other tricks I'd rather not speak about

[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
Oh, can I come and live with you for a while?
The river's dry, the sweetie's got me in denial
I've been a bad man, lady
But you know me, baby, I do anything for a smile
You want to skip my mind, but you waste my time
On telephone calls that I know are going nowhere
It's really not fair
When you tell me that my madness will always be there

[Verse 2: Kyle Falconer]
I shoulda binned these pile of promises
These apologies just far too late
Cause the voice like Jackie Kennedy, is in dire need of a remedy
Taking me out of my sober state

[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
Can I come and live with you for a while?
The river's dry, the sweetie's got me in denial
I've been a bad man, lady
But you know me, baby, I do anything for a smile
You want to skip my mind, but you waste my time
On telephone calls that I know are going nowhere
It's really not fair
When you tell me the jealousy will always be there

[Refrain: Kyle Falconer]
And I know, there's not nothing left to hide
You seen my skin and bones and now you're tearing at me inside
Now we know that's there's nothing left to hide
Yeah, we save a lot of trouble and money and move out to the countryside, oh!

[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
You need [?]
You want to skip my mind, but you waste my time
On telephone calls that I know are going nowhere
It's really not fair, when you tell me the jealousy will always
Skip my mind, but you waste my time
On telephone calls that I know are going nowhere
It's really not fair
When you tell me my madness will always be there
