Let me down real slow
You look a little dressed up
You’re acting way too smart
Your face a little bit flushed
For a walk in the park
And you’re clutching your phone
As you walk in the door
And your smile’s got a twist
You’re looking so hardcore
If you’ve something to say
Don’t be too direct
‘Cause I feel a little fragile
Don’t hit the nail on the head
I said baby, baby
Let me down real slow
I said baby, baby
Let me down real slow
Oh, no, no, no
There’s a swish in your step
There’s gleam in your eye
Are you coloring your hair
Whit some new kind of dye?
But the first one to blink
Is the first one to fall
I don’t want confrontation
I got my back to the wall
I said baby, baby
Let me down real slow
I said baby, baby
Let me down real slow
Oh, no, no, no
I said baby, baby
Let me down real slow
I said let me stretch out in the afterglow
