Tori Amos - Code Red Lyrics

Artist: Tori Amos

Album: American Doll Posse

  • Songwriters: Tori Amos

Some say that I will and some say I won't
Victory is an elusive whore
She is as easily mine as she is yours
Slip and slide my way through this charade
I know all the players and I must say
Do this long enough you get a taste for it

Do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind
What you stole, I would have given freely
Code red staring, code red staring at me

Well, sometimes you do and sometimes you don't
Sometimes I love myself best alone
Do this long enough you get a taste for it
A six pack of Coke and a bottle of Jack
"Whatever you do" he said "Look after that"
Being trusted and lusted, it could be worse than that

Do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind
What you stole, I would have given freely
Code red staring, code red staring

Come on baby, I can drink you down
Then I have my job to do and do well
Since you won't give guarantees I'll be cashing out
Do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind

Do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind
What you stole, I would have given freely
Code red, code red, code red staring
