The World's Best Kisser

Album: Ten Songs That Happened When You Left Me With My Stupid Heart (2018)

  • The world's best kisser is girl who believes
    In nothing
    She wears a lot of black
    And isn't very trusting

    And the world's best kisser is a girl I know
    And since I've met her, I'm a metronome
    I clack away and wait until we're all alone

    If I could disappear into her failures for a time
    I'd grease the creaky hinges in her mind
    Repaint the flaky walls with my belief
    Then I could turn my girl into a leaf

    Happy blowing by on summer wind
    For now she throws her arms around me like an evil twin

    And puts her crooked fingers in my mouth
    And writes me lines of code without a mouse
    While I make angels in the snow outside her house

    Girl, what turns you on?
    The pages of a book on the elliptical?
    Girl, what turns you on?
    Say before your lips become predictable

    If gravity can make a star combust
    Then maybe it's what makes me full of longing
    Full of lust

    I'm orbiting your waist throughout the day
    So maybe love is orbital decay

    My heart's a flame with atmospheric drag
    As I'm an astronaut about to plant my flag

    So tell me, girl, what turns you on?
    The pages of a book on the elliptical?
    Girl, what turns you on?
    Say before your lips become predictable

    Magic isn't magic if it lasts
    Let the record show you turn me from a solid to a liquid to a gas
    Exhibit A, your honor, run it back
    And how do you have everything I lack?

    Well, baby girl, what turns you on?
    The pages of a book on the elliptical?
    Girl, what turns you on?
    Say before your lips become predictable

    Girl, what turns you on?
    The pages of a book on the elliptical?
    Girl, what turns you on?
    Say before your lips become predictable Writer/s: Darwin Merwan Smith
