Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's tough to stay objective, baby With your tongue abseiling down my neck It's a bullet-proof offer and I can't accept It's tough to maintain focus, baby Now all my elephants are in the room We crave the fiction when we need the truth You need to find a different boy's heart to [Chorus] Chew Chew And all these emoticons and words Try to make it better, but they only make it worse [Verse 2] It's tough to feign indifference, baby Now I'm spending all the money I have Trying to impress you is kinda driving me mad And I don't blame the pressure or the vultures in the sky I blame what happens every time we're under neon lights We crave attention in a room with a view You need to find a different boy's heart to [Chorus] Chew Chew And all these emoticons and words Try to make it better, but they only make it worse (Ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh ooh) (Ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh) And all these emoticons and words (Ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh ooh) Fail to make it better, their attempts just make it worse [Bridge] (Ah, ah-ah ah, ah-ah ah) And there's everything I want and nothing I can keep (Ah, ah-ah ah, ah-ah ah) And behind these metaphors, I want you literally We crave the fiction when we need the truth You need to find a different boy's heart to chew [Chorus] Chew And all these emoticons and words (Ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh ooh) Try to make it better, but they only make it worse (Ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh ooh) [Outro] But I like it here so much I might stay The edge of nowhere's such a beautiful place The edge of nowhere's such a beautiful place
