Lyrics[]
He drove up in a summer-sky-blue Bentley
Death reflect-tec-tecting in his eyes
Thought about all the women who loved me
I said, "oh no!"
He said, "get inside"
I said, "oh no!"
He said, "get inside"
I got into his summer-sky-blue Bentley
Sun reflect-tec-tecting in my eyes
Thought about all the fun I had lately
I said, "uh-huh," I said, "I want to drive"
I said, "uh-huh, I want, I want to drive"
We drive, we drive
You say you wanna go swimming in my rain
It's green and shimmering
Like my lipstick, the color of dawn
Like my lipstick, the color of dawn
We got out of his summer-sky-blue Bentley
Death reflect-tec-tecting in the sky
Held my hand, to the ocean he led me
I said, "uh-huh, I want, I want to die"
"Uh-huh, I want, I want to die"
