about

Wendy's Theme

lyrics

If you told me that you're in love with me
I'd take a lead pipe to your knee
And if you sent me chocolates and flowers
I'd trap you in a bear's den for hours

Try not to take it personally
I'm certain it's not you, it's me
I sting like a butterfly, float like a bee
That's just how I do
Am I the ship? Are you the sea?
Or is the opposite true for me?
That's the kind of uncertainty I love

I'm not exactly where I want to be
But there's a problem only I can see
She thinks I've gone so far
She thinks I'm a rock star
But I've barely even done a damned thing yet, my friend

If you told me that love is in the air
I'd smile and push you down the stairs
If you asked me if I will marry you
I'd waterboard you 'till you turn blue

I'm not exactly where I want to be
But there's a problem only I can see
She thinks I've gone so far
She thinks I'm a rock star
But I've barely even done a damned thing yet, my friend
