Caroline Polachek
Peculiar Paradise
[Verse 1]
I'm in hiding
In peculiar paradise
In the shadows
Of electrical lanterns
Wearing blinders
Every time that you call me up
As if pictures
Spoke louder than action

[Chorus]
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise

[Verse 2]
I'm a hostage
Of a shyness that no one knows
So forgive me
If I never answer
The extension
Of your invitation
Is so intriguing
But, oh, what a hassle
[Chorus]
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise

[Bridge]
Come on, come on, come on, you said
Don't be a stranger
Come on, come on
Self-defense is the ultimate danger

[Chorus]
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise
I kick you out of my heart, but you get back in
Into peculiar paradise
