Lyrics

YOUR HOOK
(Carroll)


(You’ve got your hook, your hook, your hook in me)

Motherless Brooklyn
The worst was cooked in
For every crook to see

You didn’t mean to
But it was scene 2
Where you put your hook in me

Your role was walk-on
We talked util dawn
Was that advice for free?

or was it…

Some kind of set up
You in that get up
Putting your hook in me

It ain’t a crush as such
Really nothing much more than
A tender spot that grows and grows

Then comes the rush to touch
It may not amount to much
But it’s a move everybody knows

(You’ve got your hook, your hook, your hook in me)

Please don’t say anything
You’re on my wavelength
No need to look to see


Right here beneath my shirt
Is where it really hurts
Where you put your hook in me

It ain’t a crush as such
Really nothing much more than
A tender spot that grows and grows

You reel me in but, shux…
I don’t amount to much
Back into the deep blue sea I go

(You’ve got your hook, your hook, your hook in me)


I ride the stormy seas
With old Euripides
Crossing your tease to spot your lies
Springing toward the Fall
Answering your call
I’m drowning after all I want to
Wallow in your sparking eyes
