I did a casting call
it came out all wrong
you got the lead role
you want the walk on
the other passers-by they dont have a clue
that when I wrote the part I wrote it for you baby
you try too hard to get it
it only takes a minute
here and now
its right in front of you
it doesnt matter to you you're only twenty and two
like a canon
locked and loaded
I hear your wurlitzer
I hear it playing a tune
its so beautiful
its just like you
its in a minor key but has a major resolve
I hope we can
I think we can after all baby
you try too hard to get it
it only takes a minute
here and now
its right in front of you
it doesnt matter to you you're only twenty and two
like a canon
locked and loaded
the awkward
the floating
the silence and the choking
the mystery
urgency
the passion and the irony
you try too hard to get it
it only takes a minute
here and now
its right in front of you
it doesnt matter to you you're only twenty and two
like a canon
locked and loaded
