Lyrics Six Days in June - The Fratellis

Six Days in June

Well I get down so I can get up
And I break down so I can break up
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
And went and made my head swim
And if I walked with you awhile you would make it worth my while
And proceeded to tear me limb from limb
The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
But how do you know I’m not one
You told me if I kissed you it’d be easier in the long run
You said you’d give me a reason but you know I’ve already got one
I slow down so I can speed up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does)
And I wind down so I can wind up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does)
I was thinking about thinking about thinking
But it only made my brain freeze
And if I walked with you awhile you would make it worth my while
How did you know I love tricks like these
The bet was made I kneeled and prayed
And went off like a shotgun
You said I reminded you of a ghost
But how do you know I’m not one
You told me if I kissed you it would be easier in the long run
You said you’d give me a reason but you know I’ve already got one
And if I could paint you a picture it’d be nothing less than tragic
I would trade a lifetime for a moment now of magic
I would kick the bucket if it didn’t sound so drastic
But my feet are made of tombstones and my dreams are made of plastic
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
I was way out of tune
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
Just a joke, a cartoon
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
Oh I did not swoon
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
For six days in June
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
I was getting down low
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
Baby blow by blow
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
A trainwreck honeymoon
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
For six days in June
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
