Some muscles, they should tighten
While others, should go slack
Like the stuntmen that we are
We know the rules of fallin' flat
Best not to confuse
The personal and political
Best not to confuse
Deep felt and hysterical
Unravelling and returning
Conviction and escape (down)
The summer keeps on burnin'
Testin' how much we can take
You said you've got to fight for this.
Sure there's magic, but it takes work.
Not sleights of hand (down)
Or countin' cards.
Still learnin' what that's worth
Only you can read my mind
Only you can give it back
Only you can jump the stairs
Only you can let it loose
Only you can shame this town
Whisper baby
In my ear
Calm the f*ck down
I see tomorrow different now
Both savage and demure
August comets glistening (down)
Though still a bit unsure
Walked along the river
We stopped 7 times to kiss
Hard to know just what that is
Guess we're learnin'
What-we've-missed
Only you can read my mind
Only you can give it back
Only you can jump the stairs
Only you can let it loose
Only you can shame this town
Whisper baby
In my ear
Calm the f*ck down
