Taxidermy
[Verse 1]
Love me, leave me
I can make it nice and easy
When you come back begging
Asking for another freebie

[Pre-Chorus]
Took a wrong turn and you knew it
Fucked the wrong ties and you blew it
But a promise ain't a payment
You'll be sleeping in the bed you're making

[Chorus]
You'll be my taxidermy, taxidermy
I keep you hanging on a bedroom wall
And if I ever move to Albuquerque
I'm gonna strap you to my Chevy Impala
Don't gotta say a word baby, I don't mind
I'll keep you dusted off, keep you looking alive
You'll be my taxidermy, taxidermy
If you ever hurt me again

[Verse 2]
Heart break trophy
Everybody loves a show piece
Blue eyed, tongue tied
Who cares about the alimony?
[Pre-Chorus]
Always gotta smile for the camera
Looking like you wanna turn the letters like Vanna
Well this tall drink I'm mixing
Either way, you're sipping, I'm winning

[Chorus]
You'll be my taxidermy, taxidermy
I keep you hanging on a bedroom wall
And if I ever move to Albuquerque
I'm gonna strap you to my Chevy Impala
Don't gotta say a word baby, I don't mind
I'll keep you dusted off, keep you looking alive
You'll be my taxidermy, taxidermy, ay
If you ever hurt me again

[Interlude]

[Bridge]
Rug on the floor, couch made of leather
You sure know how to bring a room together
Rug on the floor, couch made of leather
You sure know how to bring a room together

[Chorus]
You'll be my taxidermy, taxidermy
I keep you hanging on a bedroom wall
And if I ever move to Albuquerque
I'm gonna strap you to my Chevy Impala
Don't gotta say a word baby, I don't mind
I'll keep you dusted off, keep you looking alive
You'll be my taxidermy, taxidermy
If you ever hurt me again
Yeah, that looks good, right over there
Rug on the floor, couch made of leather
You sure know how to bring a room together
