Like a can of paint and old paintbrushes.
        F                Am      G              C
Like a ribbon wrapped around a small latch key.

Wicknor-Whatnot that's what you call me.

When you startled me aw-ake.

Lets pretend so we can begin again.

You're a man - You insist I insist on a piece of cake.
