lyrics

This ain't no fairy tale or fable, as she climbs across the table
And she whispers what she's able to do.
I'm no knight in shining armor, and I already warned her
About my limitations
Her soul twists around my skin but I won't let her in
I don't want no complications

Hey Regina, I didn't mean to come see you tonight
But your door was open and my heart was broken and I didn't think you'd mind
Hey Regina, I didn't mean to come see you tonight
But your door was open and my heart was broken and your body felt just right

She don't want me for my body, I don't want her for her mind
I'm just a little game to help her pass the time
We've got flesh and lust and mutual distrust and hours and hours to unwind
We've got flesh and lust and mutual distrust and hours and hours to unwind
We've got flesh and lust and mutual distrust and hours and hours to unwind

If I let you use me, can I use you too?
I'm in a lewd kind of mood but my view is skewed
By the swoons you induce in the other dudes you seduce
I'll have to make do with the sighs you produce
Your bottles of booze, your pills from Peru
High-heeled shoes, that blouse I see through
Your long trail of clues that lead to nothing new
I'm not as shrewd as you, you can see through my ruse

But I'll subdue your tattoo if it's the last thing I do
If you be my muse for a few, then I'll stop singing the blues

This ain't no fairy tale or fable, as she climbs across the table
And she whispers what she's able to do.
I'm no knight in shining armor, and I already warned her
About my limitations
Her soul twists around my skin but I won't let her in
I don't want no complications

Hey Regina, I didn't mean to come see you tonight
But your door was open and my heart was broken and I didn't think you'd mind
Hey Regina, I didn't mean to come see you tonight
But your door was open and my heart was broken and your body felt just right
