When I woke up this afternoon
I knew I felt uneasy
But no matter what I'd do
Nothing seemed to please meI couldn't get out of my head
That little fight we had last night
Though I would much rather be dead
Than admit to myself that you were right
Oh, oh, oh, ohDon't be silly, turn on Billie
She's singing us to sleep
So we can dream our lives awayAnd if we wake up in full makeup
We'll paint the town blue
'Cause baby, red is so passNow don't look at me that way
You know I just can't take it
And no matter what they say
I know that we will make it'Cause when we are good, we're grand
But when we're bad we are very bad
But I stick around 'cause the love
That you're giving me is the best
I've ever had, oh, oh, oh, ohDon't be silly, turn on Billie
She's singing us to sleep
So we can dream our lives awayAnd if we wake up in full makeup
We'll paint the town blue
'Cause baby, red is so passAnd it's funny to me
The way that things have worked out
There's no doubt
(In my mind)That you can't recall
What this all was about
So let's give it upLove me sweetly and completely
Come and sit beside me
'Cause you know I need you nearWhen you're wheelin' with that feelin'
We'll paint the town pink
'Cause baby, red is so last yearDon't be silly, turn on Billie
She's singing us to sleep
So we can dream our lives awayAnd if we wake up in full makeup
We'll paint the town blue
'Cause baby, red is so pass
