1994

(album: Different Kinds Of Light - 2021)

My baby placed a bet on me
I said that I'd do anything
He sat inside the front of his car
He said, "You won't let me down, will ya?"

And if you get caught
Tell them nothing at all
Say that I wasn't short of six feet tall
And if you get caught
Tell them nothing at all
Say that I was born in 1994

My baby went and closed his eyes
I felt a gun upon my spine
No one tells you that love is this blind
Or maybe they did, I just thought it was a lie

And if you get caught
Tell them nothing at all
Say that I wasn't short of six feet tall
And if you get caught
Tell them nothing at all
Say that I was born in 1994

As I hand in the check
I try to relax
Before the swords are drawn
The words in my head go on, and on and on and on

And if you get caught
Tell them nothing at all
Say that I wasn't short of six feet tall
And if you get caught
Tell them nothing at all
Say that I was born in 1994
