“EVERAFTER”

...........................................................................

Broken Bones Matilda

...........................................................................

She used to wait on the corner
with her keys in her hand
Spin em round her little finger
waiting on her man
Hair down low, feet shoulder-width apart
Sit in the back row
stay quiet, stay smart

Don’t be late boy

You better turn and run
Teenage girls don’t wait
for the right one to ask them
Don’t be late boy
What you gonna ask her?
First to drink
Then to dance
And be your everafter

I hear my heart skip a beat
when I’m looking in your eyes
Push the fire from my feet
like I’m heading for the skies
Hot love, cold steel on your soft young skin
Broken bed, burning red,
breath heavy, air thin

Don’t be late boy
You better turn and run
Teenage girls don’t wait

for the right one to ask them
Don’t be late boy
What you gonna ask her?
First to drink
Then to dance
And be your everafter
