Kayak — Periscope Life lyrics

Lyrics

Sweet Marjorie she s talking to me
I only say she s right
Knowing her that s the only way not to be here all night
Sweet Marjorie don t talk to me
Your eyes outshine the stars
Don t break the spell by saing love is just a farce
She tells me I don t understand her point of view
And I admit I really think so too
My arguments don t ever seem to reach her
No politics now, please — but here we go again
She says now this is where we disagree
You ve got to open up your eyes and see
To live a periscope life like that
I ll tell you where I m at
You maybe better off dead
She s so extreme, she won t let me dream
Won t let me love and caress
I m always told to look around and conclude this world s a mess
Sweet Marjorie, she s dining with me
I say let s order some food
Although the system s wrong- the menu s looking good
I know the whole world fights and kills and hates
But lady must that always spoil our dates
I can t imagine that the world would end
If I would eat my steak now that it s warm
