Lyrics:
Verse:
Clear-eyed girl…
In a crooked way…
All the crooked walkin’…
To avoid and evade…
Hair like maple…
Skin like cream…
Let them say I Love You…
When you strip them clean…
Chorus:
Baby, you’re so vague…
Baby, you’re so vague…
Baby, you’re so vague
that you probably think this song ain’t about you…
Verse:
Green-eyed boys…
Lick the razor blade…
Girl, I think I love you…
And the mess you made…
Setting you up…
It don’t get you down…
When you flash your fangs…
Your own this town…
Baby, you’re so vague…
