The Fratellis - The Next Time We Wed Lyrics

Red eyes, tell me twice
Should I put my hopes on ice
Fair skin, empty face
Help me keep my nerve in place
Read my lips, time slips
Slowly from your fingertips
Make my night, hold tight
Thrill me 'til my teeth go white
Be my myth, I'll be your sin
Save me at your own expense

Uh huh

Well it's just like a girl I can keep a boy guessing
I'll wring you by the neck and I'll teach you such a lesson
I'll bleed from my profession
Here is my confession
Give me half a chance and you can be my new obsession
I'll take your only sympathy
Put me out my misery
Blow me one more kiss and, baby, you can have the best of me

Next time we wed
I'll be on my best behaviour
Next time we wed
I'll be everybody's saviour
Next time we wed
Darling, I'll be a saint
I'll be wrong when you're right
Keep my mouth shut and lips tight
Beg from my toes to my head
The next time we wed

Tell me this for nothing
Make me dignified
Kiss me as you're leaving
Just so you can say you tried
Make me sentimental
Beat me black and blue
Hit me up it's just so simple
Darling, I'm too good for you

Well it's just like a girl I can keep a boy guessing
I'll wring you by the neck and I'll teach you such a lesson
I'll bleed from my profession
Here is my confession
Give me half a chance and you can be my new obsession
I'll take your only sympathy
Put me out my misery
Blow me one more kiss and, baby, you can have the best of me

Next time we wed
I'll be on my best behaviour
Next time we wed
I'll be everybody's saviour
Next time we wed
I'll be handsome in the daylight
Next time we wed
Oh honey, I will lose my stage fright
Next time we wed
I won't specialize in failure
Next time we wed
I'll be everybody's saviour
Next time we wed
Honey, I'll be a saint

I'll be wrong when you're right
Keep my mouth shut and lips tight
Beg from my toes to my head
The next time we wed
The next time we wed
The next time we wed
The next time we wed
