(pause)
The  reception's gotten  fuzzy
The  delicate balance has  shifted
Put  on your gloves and your black  pumps
Let's  pretend the fog has lifted
Now  you see  me
Now  you don't
Now  you say you love  me
Pretty  soon you won't
 If we  get our full three score and  ten
We  won't pass this way again
 So kiss me with your mouth open
Turn  the tires toward the street
 And stay sweet
(pause)
All  the chickens come on home  to roost
Plump  bodies blotting out the sky
You  know it breaks my heart in half,  in half
When  I see them trying to fly
 'Cause you just can't do
Things  your body wasn't meant  to
Hike  up your fishnets
I  know you
 If we live  to see the other side of this
I  will remember your kiss
 So do it with your mouth open
And  take your foot off of the brake
 For Christ's sake
