Henry Jamison
Hair To The Ferris Wheel
[Intro]
Take me by the arm to the altar
Take me by the collar to the cliff
Take me by the waist to the water
Take me by the hair to the Ferris wheel
Take me by the wrist to the river
Take me by the braid down to my grave

[Chorus]
Love is selfish
Love goes tick-tock-tick
And love knows Jesus
Apples and oranges

[Verse 1]
It's a zoo in your room when you part your lips
And you long to kiss like you won't exist
Come the morning time, come the sunrise
And all I'd like to do this afternoon
Is to drag the mattress up to the roof
Hushed tones in the ears of the airplane next to you
Let's crawl all over one another
Like crows on a carcass, like ants on a crumb
Starving only, starving only for the taste of tongues

[Chorus]
Love is selfish
Love goes tick-tock-tick
Love knows Jesus
Apples and oranges
Love is selfish
Love goes tick-tock-tick
And love knows Jesus
Apples and oranges
[Outro]
Take me by the arm to the altar
Take me by the collar to the cliff
Take me by the waist to the water
Take me by the hair to the Ferris wheel
Take me by the wrist to the river
Take me by the braid down to my grave
