Lyrics

You know, it really creeps in
You don’t notice it at first
Even when you’re on the lookout
Even when you’ve rehearsed

It doesn’t feel like a big deal
What is one little kiss
But then you’re up to your eyeballs
You know you’re better than this

Suddenly you’re surrounded
And there’s something in the tea
Consequently you’ve grounded
Where deference is currency
And there’s something to be said
For eloquence and tasty bread
But I’ve always been suspicious
When they tell me
I gotta bow my head

So then you take your first step
And it turns into a dance
And before you even know it
You’re the hot new romance
You hear them starting to whisper
And they start keeping track
A little voice in your head says
Now you can never go back

Suddenly you’re surrounded
And there’s something in the tea
Consequently you’ve grounded
Where deference is currency
And there’s something to be said
For eloquence and tasty bread
But I’ve always been suspicious
When they tell me
I gotta bow my head
