Atop a Cake

Atop a Cake - Alvvays

I lie on a sofa awake it's what you said last night

You'd like us on top of a cake

But you won't let me take a bite

Flowers arriving in fleets

Can't we talk about this

Why let the state in our sheets

Can't we do without it

Well I don't mean to wind you up

But i'd like to slow it down

How do i remain a pup if you put be in a gown

What's it got to do with you

What's it got to do with me

How could i lose control

When you're driving from the backseat

What's it got to do with you

What's it got to do with me

How could i lose control

When you're driving from the backseat

Corners begin to repeat I think we're getting lost

We walked to the end of the street

But we were bitten by the frost

So if you have to thaw me out

You can put me in a pail

Can we take another route

I don't want to wear a vail

What's it got to do with you

What's it got to do with me

How could i lose control

When you're driving from the backseat

What's it got to do with you

What's it got to do with me

How could I lose control

When you're driving from the backseat

I'll wait in the lobby for someone to show

And if they don't come I will know where to go

The bodies are lined up outside in the hall

I don't want to decay in a mall

If everything you say is true

Then why would I disagree how could I lose control

What's it got to do with you

What's it got to do with me

How could I lose control

When you're driving from the backseat

When you're driving from the backseat
