Call Me What You Like / Reptilia (BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge)
[Verse 1]
I never was a fan of the internet
She never felt that safe in her own head
We both hate the news
There for the grace of God goes you
Smiling when I ask if she's bored yet
We wonder if we took it too far
We both taste confused
Darling, what am I to do?
[Pre-Chorus]
I like to think that I'm
The only guy she'll see tonight
You could call me what you like
As long as you call me
[Chorus]
And you could kiss the skin
From my lips if it makes you feel good
I'm not sure if you want it
Not sure if you need me, too
And you can taste the beer
On every guywho talks to you
But you can't stay awake forever
No, you can't stay awake forever
[Verse 2]
And so I find myself in your mum's bedroom
Fighting with the pink roller blinds
It's on pay-per-view
Just place your bets on who's lost their minds
You take a pirouette under duvet set
You sigh with perfect pitch and with time
I'm not made for you
But what else is new?
Oh, Lord she tells me that it's nothing
I really hope it's nothing
[Chorus]
You could kiss the skin
From my lips if it makes you feel good
I'm not sure if you want it
Not sure if you need me, too
And you can taste the beer
On every guy that talks to you
But you can't stay awake forever
No, you can't stay awake forever
[Bridge]
Yeah, the night's not over, you're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes, you ran me off the road
The wait is over, now I'm taking over
You're no longer laughing, I'm not drowning fast enough
[Chorus]
You could kiss the skin
From my lips if it makes you feel good
I'm not sure if you want it
Not sure if you need me, too
And you can taste the beer
On every guy who talks to you
But you can't stay awake forever
No, you can't stay awake forever
[Outro]
And you could kiss the skin
From my lips if it makes you feel good
I'm not sure if you want it
Not sure if you need me, too
And you can taste the beer
On every guy who talks to you
But you can't stay awake forever
No, you can't stay awake forever
