lyrics

Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai

I don't know how much more of this I can take
You lying there on the floor, not doing much
'Cept watching my heart take
Another step away from hope, you're another inch toward
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai

I don't got a lot of wiggle room in the bank
But, boy, if I did, I'd buy you every drop
Of the blood you cannot make
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai

I would take this life inside me
Place it into your rapidly beating heart
I would take this marrow growing
Fix it to your bones so you'd restart

It's a freak of nature, it's a grand coincidence
It's a fluke of timing that I clean her fingerprints forever
Just in time to watch you fade away
If I don't want both, then neither can remain

Baby, baby, baby, baby, get out of bed
You itty bitty, fuzzy footed, fucking sleepyhead
I'm gonna cry if I don't see you at my door
I'm gonna weep if you don't want to play with me anymore
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai

Imagine I'm Zeus or Ra, whatever you like
While lying inside my palm you wrongly assume
You'll never fear the night
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai

I'd give all I've got to bring you back from the brink
'Cept that I lent the lot to your sister
And washed her down the sink
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai

Give the birdie to the man with the stethescope
'Cause he's not your friend, is he now? Nope!
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai

Your ears are cold, and your toes are cold
And your lips are white as snow
Your breath is quick as you take a whiff
Of your food, and you let it go
Your legs are long, but your words aren't strong
You never, ever talk at all

Baby, baby, baby, baby, get out of bed
You itty bitty, fuzzy footed, fucking sleepyhead
I'm gonna cry if I don't see you at my door
I'm gonna weep if you don't want to play with me anymore
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai
Lai di dai di dai di dai, dai dai, dai di dai, dai daiiiiiiii
