Their heads are the heaviest in operation,

just wait till then.

We marys had ourselves a ball.

Hang us those limbs hold no virtue.

Those told to hold: project on my cue.

Em D
Whether a he or a she, put your mouth where your money is.
A
Are the birds of a feather that clever?
G A
If I knew I'd keep locks, that's a given, just wait till then.

Their heads cast shadows like skyscrapers.
A G
Small enough to feed off the lesses to put it all into perspective with
A
definition.

Em A C
Listen to my proven guarantees while you're rolling up your sleeves,

But we can keep it in a jar when it's comin' cats and dogs for days.

We marys had ourselves a ball.

And what they've done for you
C D
they've done for me, they've done for me.
