[Intro]
E

[Verse]
E
"Why is the world so creepy?" she asked
E
Till a car full of haircuts drove past
E
A backseat full of the boys

E
I told her that it isn't
E
That it, that it's exquisite
E
But like love it has it's barbarous threats

[Verse]
E
Still in spite of the cads
E
And the stoop shouldered teens
E
I know I'm losing you
E
I know what that means

E
I told her that it isn't
E
That it's real exquisite
E
But like love it can have it's stubbed toe effects

[Verse]
E
And just like after she heard the word iridescent
E
And everything was iridescent for a while
E
It wasn't long before she exalted out of nowhere
E
"Isn't this exquisite?"

E
Once you've said "mmm" in unison
E
And "oh" in double surprise
E
And shared relief with a mutual "phew"
E
And a look in each others' eyes

[Verse]
E
I tell her that is isn't
E
Insisted that it isn't
E
Because like love it has too cunning effects

E
I told her that it isn't
E
That it's just exquisite
E
Because like love it has it's barbarous threats

E
"Why is the world so creepy?" she asked
E
After a car full of haircuts drove past
E
A backseat full of the boys
E
Breaking glass, throwing off glass
