MANDY MOORE LYRICS - Senses Working Overtime

"Senses Working Overtime"



One, two, three, four, five



Hey hey

The clouds are whey

There's straw for the donkeys and the innocents

Can all sleep safely, all sleep safely

My, my the sun is pie

There's fodder for the cannons and the guilty ones

Can all sleep safely, all sleep safely



And all the world is football-shaped

It's just for me to feed my face

And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste

And I've got one, two, three, four, five



Senses working overtime

Trying to take this all in

I've got one, two, three, four, five

Senses working overtime

Trying to taste the difference 'tween the lemons and limes

The pain and the pleasure

And the church bells softly chime



Hey hey, night fights day

There's food for the thinkers and the innocents

Can all live slowly, all live slowly

My, my the sky will cry

Jewels for the thirsty and the guilty ones

Can all die slowly, all die slowly



And all the world is biscuit shaped

It's just for me to kick in space

And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste



And I've got one, two, three, four, five

Senses working overtime

Trying to take this all in

I've got one, two, three, four, five

Senses working overtime

Trying to taste the difference 'tween the lemons and limes

The pain and the pleasure

And the church bells softly chime



And birds might fall from black skies

Bullies might give you black eyes

Busses might skid on black ice

But to me it's very beautiful

Beautiful



And all the world is biscuit shaped

It's just for me to feed my face

And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste



And I've got one, two, three, four, five

Senses working overtime

Trying to take this all in

I've got one, two, three, four, five



Senses working overtime

Trying to taste the difference 'tween the lemons and limes

The pain and the pleasure

And the church bells softly chime
