Swing It Around - Nikka Costa

I can see it in you eyes

You can hardly contain yourself

With everything you feel

You say, hallelujah

I’m so glad my friends made me come here

All this talent

And me looking so damn fine up in here

I’m your gift and it’s your birthday

Swing it around and put it here

Baby c’mon baby c’mon

Swing it around and put it here

So now you’re in my ear

Talkin''bout how the eyes are really windows

Into someone’s soul

And I’m supposed to act like

I never heard that one before

I thought no one used those lines no more

It’s just as tired now as it was then

Swing it around and put it here

Baby c’mon baby c’mon

Swing it around and put it here

Blow my mind and I’ll bend right over

I’ll be yours with no do-overs

But it’s gonna take so much more than a promise

To move my world

To make this rock wanna roll with ya You try to put pictures in my head

I don’t know, somethin''bout

Have I ever rode a thoroughbred

My friend didn’t buy it So you thought you’d try it on me instead

And now my eyes couldn’t get further

Back in my head

But you still askin’if my hair is really red

Baby, c’mon…

Gimme somethin’I can work with here

Baby c’mon baby c’mon

Gimme something I can work with here

Baby c’mon baby c’mon

… Or swing it around and put it over there
