Lyrics

MELTDOWN

I’d put you in my black coffee
I’d put you in the microwave
I’d put you in my exhaust pipe
I’d cook you over easy on a hot sidewalk

I’d light you like my cigarette, girl
I’d turn you on with my light
I’d ignite you like an afterburner
I’d grill you up like a hotdog

Chorus:
If I thought that would cool your coolness, I’d act that foolish
You’re the one, you’re the one, when I’m lonely you’re the one I want
If I’m gonna melt you, baby, succumb to your subtle charms
You’re the one, you’re the one, when I’m lonely you’re the one I want
I don’t want to waste you in the heat – I want to melt you in my arms
You’re the one, you’re the one, when I’m lonely…in my arms, in my arms… in my arms

You threw me for a turn
Hey, babe, but I’m not trying to throw you
I’m only trying, I’m only trying to get to know you

I’d wrap around you like an electric blanket
Chew you up like chili peppers, red hots
I’d make love to you like the devil, babe
I’m gonna, gonna get you, no matter the cost

Chorus
