I can see the end, I'm a shallow resident
Holdin' on to empty space with everythin'
Blue and yellow dread, on the sunset, shatterin'
Just a stranger to the taste of something sweet

And then I saw you

Oh, my American jawbreaker
Somethin' from my TV screen
Oh, my, my, honey, you're a heart shaker
Swingin' from the mezzanine

Oh

Now, I can't pretend that my heart's on house arrest
All the darker parts of me are cavin' in
Jumpin' off the fence and it's feeling like the bent
This is everythin' I didn't know I wanted

When I saw you

Oh, my American jawbreaker
Somethin' from my TV screen
Oh, my, my, honey, you're a heart shaker
Swingin' from the mezzanine

Oh
