Sticks and Stones (Acoustic)

from Chihuahua & Other Ferocious Beasts by Cherry Head, Cherry Heart

lyrics

If I called you Darlin'...
I'd kick you into touch.
If "baby" ever passed my lips...
That's four letters too much.
Where are all the words that I can use?
To win the heart that you're about to lose.

Oh my little hunnybun.
So sweet it makes me sick.
And if I popped The question?
That's a bubble I would prick.
How can I tell you the way I feel?
Try saying something vaguely real.

Like all these...
Sticks and stones and broken bones and glass and
bricks and phones they will knock your ass if
you can't find a single word
that million baby cupcakes have not heard.

I'll think of something just for you.
Well that would be a start.
A word plucked out of my own head.
Try something from the heart.
A word that will combine my love and lust.
Use artistic license if you must.

How about the goldfish...
Of your septic tank?
My million dollar doughnut?
From the jelly ice cream bank?
A word to make your heart just leap and soar.
Not leave you knocked out cold upon the floor.

Like all these...
Sticks and stones and broken bones and glass and
bricks and phones they will knock your ass if
you can't find a single word
that million sugarpies have not heard.

Cutie pie (cut it)
Sweetchecks (bruise it)
funnyface (smack it)
moonbeam (lose it)
Puppy dog (drown it)
cherry lips (suck it)
baby doll (kill it)

Like all these...
Sticks and stones and broken bones and glass and
bricks and phones they will knock your ass if
you can't find a single word
that million coochycoos have not heard.

If I called you darlin'
I'd say it was the drink.
If "baby" ever crossed my lips?
I'd say "What does your wife think?"
