A Manner To Act - Ra Ra Riot

Baby, oh touch me like you did in the summer when I woke up just to hear

Speakers made of tin cans piercing through my window like a cool breeze on my

ears

Sitting on a stoop in the yard I looked so tired, I could tell that it’s early

enough

Oh, it’s much too far to be walking all by myself

What a manner to act like a heart attack

Because looking back, you would’ve worked it like this

Nine o’clock is late for the sun but the subway’s only seven blocks away and

we’ll be there soon

We’re walking to the boulevard, it never seemed as bad as any other time

passing through

Keep on looking down at the pavement with hope that there’s no one can hear

your pocketful of keys

Oh, and pain!

Feel the skin that’s calloused on my feet

What a manner to act like a heart attack

Because looking back, you would’ve worked out like this

I got two stiches in my eyes and there are too many things

That feel like that you are talking about
