Wiggle Room Lyrics

She's calling from a pay phone on Mercury

My skin's crawling 'cause I think that she burns for me

And that seems to work for me

I hear what's coming so I'm keeping my peepers closed

I can't believe I'm walking out on shelter from cold

All I ask is for a little bit of wiggle room

I gazed into the smokescreen

The view from my window at my subway seat

I'm underground with the bones of the dinosaurs

But something puts me on my feet

Can't you hear fluorescent lights flicker?

Can't you feel the seconds grow thicker

Can't you see me losing my powers

Undoing the hours

Browbeaten 'til it finally gets through to me

I can't help that this will always be new to me

That point is now moot to me

I gazed into the smokescreen

The view from my window at my subway seat

I'm underground with the bones of the dinosaurs

But something puts me on my feet

Can't you hear fluorescent lights flicker?

Can't you feel the seconds grow thicker

Can't you see me losing my powers

Undoing the hours

I gazed into the smokescreen

The view from my window at my subway seat

I'm underground with the bones of the dinosaurs

A little bit of wiggle room
