[Part I: Once In A While]

[Intro]
Yeah, mm

[Verse]
Once a while, I let the lights down
Slow enough to watch 'em rise off your skin, oh
Some nights, I let the water run for miles over me for hours
When everything keeps turning when I close my eyes
And half the world's awake under a different sky
I tried to tell you, babe
Okay, I tried to tell you, babe

[Part II: Plastic People]

[Chorus]
Plastic people, plastic scissors
Cut the heads off my action figures
Playin' with fire, burnin' bridges
Melt like plastic into liquid
I tried to tell you, babe
I tried to tell, babe
