Turn On Billie - The Pierces

When I woke up this afternoon

I knew I felt uneasy

But no matter what I’d do

Nothing seemed to please me

I couldn’t get out of my head

That little fight we had last night

Though I would much rather be dead

Than admit to myself

That you were right

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Don’t be silly

Turn on Billie

She’s singing us to sleep

So we can dream our lives away

And if we wake up in full makeup

We’ll paint the town blue

Cause, baby, red is so passé

Now don’t look at me that way

You know I just can’t take it

And no matter what they say

I know that we will make it

Cause when we are good, we’re grand

But when we’re bad, we are very bad

But I stick around cause the love

That you’re giving me is the best

I’ve ever had

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Don’t be silly

Turn on Billie

She’s singing us to sleep

So we can dream our lives away

And if we wake up in full makeup

We’ll paint the town blue

Cause, baby, red is so passé

And it’s funny to me

The way that things have worked out

There’s no doubt (in my mind)

That you can’t recall

What this all was about

So let’s give it up

Love me sweetly and completely

Come and sit beside me

Cause you know I need you near

When you’re wheelin'

With that feelin'

We’ll paint the town pink

Cause, baby, red is so last year

Don’t be silly

Turn on Billie

She’s singing us to sleep

So we can dream our lives away

And if we wake up in full makeup

We’ll paint the town blue

Cause, baby, red is so passé
