police car

Singer:doolittle, eliza

banging on my tambourine

i didn't think i'd make a scene

until everyone joined in the chase

i never meant to make you cry

my head was floating in the sky

and nothing looked to be out of place

i've got my head like a cello

melancholy bows

if it goes

keep it mellow

baby

should i pay attention to the alarm

the sirens going off in a police car

i forget

i forget to be cool

cool

cool

i try my best to not get arrested by you

you

you

i thought that i could plinky-plonk

along the piano wall i wanted

didn't think you'd hear a wrong note

i'm like a pencil load and blunt

and writing in a bolder font

and i'm steady losing your boat

and i forget

i forget to be cool

cool

cool

i try my best to not get arrested by you

you

you

i've got my head like a cello

melancholy bows

if it goes

keep it mellow

baby

should i pay attention to the alarm

the sirens going off in a police car

and i forget

i forget to be cool

cool

cool

i try my best to not get arrested by you

you

you

i forget

i forget to be cool

cool

cool

i try my best to not get arrested by you

you

you
