You Make Me Sick

from The Waterworks (demo) by Pete Davis

/

lyrics

Hello, nice to meet you, I'm new around here.
Could you show me around? Say, has anyone ever

Told you about those pearly eyes?
Or warned you of the trouble they could cause
To someone like me 'cause I'm falling already

Would you happen to have some insulin
Or a paper bag to
Stop my heavy breathing,
Or an aspirin for my head?

You're so sweet that I'm hyperglycemic.
You're so bright that I'm jaundiced and burnt.
The sight of your face gave me astigmatism.
Face it darling, you make me sick of time without you.

Just smile at the Pearly Gates
And subtly drop my name
And I'll meet you there with a halo and a bouquet.

Will you accept this plea
For your hand to
Cure me
I'll wait lifetimes for you
If you'll come through

Your warm touch made me paraplegic.
Your attention gives me tachycardia.
Sleep apnea wakes me and you come to mind,
I'm choking to breathe you in.

I'm coughing up my lungs
To make a place for you beside my heart.
