Running With Scissors

Running With Scissors
Could you ever kiss a tiger on the nose?
Please be any flower but a rose.
Don't try so hard to paint yourself into someone else’s portrait.
Its a better frame of reference to be joking while you snort it.
Come sit with me, and while we're at it chance to wrap your arms around
Look in my eyes I dare you, and ask me 'is that your sound?'

Don't follow the routine kids, i tell you its a waste.
Let's make some waves, be in a rush, let's be makin' crazy haste.
If you got all the dirt behind your ears then girl I swear I’m gonna turn and run.
Screw being depressed not sleeping pills, no not a razor use my gun.
I say what's the good of smiling if you don't make somebody start?
Keep a little dirt in pocket; a little sunshine in your heart.

It takes so much more than red or just the thorns to be a rose.
You keep your friends around your lips, you keep your sense stuck up your nose.
Awkward = Stupid, who are they to say its wrong?
They say be quiet i say their loss, now come and help me bang this gong.
Don't you lock your voice away my friend cuz' one day soon you might be famous!
Rock the boat a little more; the shortest roads the best and heinous.

Sweetie remember to play clean, but keep your mind inside the gutter.
Life's a piece of toast; you'll have the bread but never butter.
Bad example I admit it, maybe this ones better dead.
I see that ace kept in your sleeve, but can you shuffle in your head?
I hate all butterflies, so will you prove that you're a bee?
Take a shot or take a bow, it’s not so painful run with me.

I'll shout it loud, that’s what I said, never pretend it didn't happen.
I'll sail my boat across the sea, and yeah i'll fight to stay the cap'n.
Dare you to dream with me, while underwater or over dinner?
The only way that I describe the perfect angels 'one more sinner'
Damn well I’ll be damned, if damnit, Damnit you ain't mine.
Do me a favor, don't be gentle and I promise you'll be fine.

Ride a bike and burn the helmet, take a fall and scrape your knees.
Bloody painful sadly broken gimme a kiss when I say 'please.'
A lie beneath the radar's worth two truths under a glass.
If they ever dare to hurt you, god only knows I’ll kick their ass.
Are you jumping off that bridge dear? No I won't stop you, wait for me.
I got your back I'll hold your hand, and I’ll be waiting here for thee.
