lyrics

I can’t trust my hands.
They’re tryin’ to choke my beer.
They keep lighting cigarettes,
they want to pull you near
So if I were you, boy, I wouldn’t sit too close
’cause when my hands get bored, I’m not responsible.

chorus:
You’re looking at a woman on the edge
And I keep looking over
And every time you move
I move in, just a little closer
I can’t trust my mouth.
It’s saying stupid things.
It wants to open up and tell you what it thinks.
So if I were you, boy, I’d listen to the band
’cause I can’t trust my mouth
And I don’t trust my hands.

chorus

I can’t trust my eyes.
They’ve lied before.
You know, they see what they want to see
and they beg for more.
So if I were you, boy, I’d watch my back
’cause my brakes are shot and I’m running out of track.

chorus
