Sugar

Thea Gilmore

Would you look at this place 
There's a sign on the wall 
We are all suddenly free 
We don't pull any punches at all 
Imagination runs riot 
There's a choice of three doors 
Tell me what's a pretty girl to do 
In a land of metaphors

You can take me home 
You can take it on through 
You can lay me in your bed 
Tell me to say stop when I want you to 
But don't you dare
But don't you dare
But don't you dare
Call me sugar

Little baby innocence 
With a couple of silent scars 
I've got a head with too much sense 
And a mouth full of nervous laughs
Well you might get off easy 
But I don't dance to your tune 
You might think you're putting pressure on me but honey 
This is a vacuum 

You can take me home 
You can take it on through 
You can lay me in your bed 
Tell me to say stop when I want you to 
But don't you dare
But don't you dare
But don't you dare
Call me sugar

Well you can shut up now, I'm talking 
I am so sick of your one-line conversation
They say learn to walk before you can run 
Maybe you should learn to talk before you injure someone 

You can take me home 
You can take it on through 
You can lay me in your bed 
Tell me to say stop when I want you to 
But don't you dare
But don't you dare
But don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me sugar

Well you might get off easy 
But I don't dance to your tune 
You might think you're putting pressure on me but honey 
This is a vacuum
