## Lyrics

*[Laura Les]*

You're so cute that I'm always crying out to you

You keep the spiders crawling up my legs

And making homes where my tights rip

I don't like that

Like your ignorance (haha)

Spider bites hurt

But a kiss is always fun

It's exactly what I wanted

It's exactly what I-

She's getting very close

Sometimes I know I'm wrong

Okay, I'm wrong a lot of times

But maybe

This time is different

But I definitely know

That I can hold it out now

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

Her sweat is stumbling out as she's speaking

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

All about our fucked up client

But he says

Don't you know that

Speaking like this

Only leads to laughs at dinner

It's better just to save your breath

A waiter comes up

And asks "Oh, what'll it be tonight?"

She licks her lips and with a wink

She says, almost knowing there'll be a reaction

"Something juicy"

I'm sure, I'm sure

Do you have something I can take home

And leave in my fridge for about six or seven years

And bring it out and it'll still be tender

Something I can cut without a knife

I'm thinking sorbet, sorbet

How could I forget?

It's cold to the tongue

And it's cold to the touch

You're gonna get a headache

If you keep eating that all day

I don't care, anyway

She's getting very close

Sometimes I know I'm wrong

Okay, I'm wrong a lot of times but maybe

This time is different

But I definitely know that I can't hold it out now

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

Her sweat is stumbling out as she's speaking

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

All about our fucked up client

But he says

Don't you know that

Speaking like this

Only leads to laughs at dinner

It's better just to save your breath

Okay so across the table

He wags his big finger and says

With maybe just an ounce of condemnation

That kind of diet is lacking nutrition

You know that I love you

It's sad that you're missing out on this banquet to eat

Fucking ice off the floor

My waiter is standing there across the room

He's crying his eyes out

Wishing he could go home and kiss his wife

But this spectacle is out of his control, sadly

So he just stands there and waits it out and

Picks up all the rest of the ice cream when they both left

She's getting very close

Sometimes I know I'm wrong

Okay, I'm wrong a lot of times but maybe

This time is different

But I definitely know that I can't hold it out now

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

Her sweat is stumbling out as she's speaking

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

All about our fucked up client

But he says

Don't you know that

Speaking like this

Only leads to laughs at dinner

It's better just to save your breath

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

Her sweat is stumbling out as she's speaking

I've got a story to tell about the weekend

All about our fucked up client

But he says

Don't you know that

Speaking like this

Only leads to laughs at dinner

It's better just to save your breath
