I'm in need of someone to take care of me tonight
As I walk into Dorian's, can you see it in my eyes?
My boots are on the mend, and they ain't walking home
Street tar and summer do a job on your sole
Street tar and summer do a job on your sole
Jenny's watching Cover Shot
My head's feeling light
I'm in need of someone take care of me tonight
Anyhow, anyway, so I split
Like just getting out of there is gonna get me out of this.
I spent the night in the map room
I humanized the vacuum.
I'm in need of someone to take care of me tonight
Ah and as I'm lookin' out at you, can you see that in...in my eyes,
On the mend, now they could lead me home
Street tar and summer, they play a trick on your soul
Oh Jenny's gone day and night
Ah it makes me feel so light
Just somebody to care tonight
Jenny's watching day and night
Ah my head's still feeling light
Someone to take care tonight
All the weird kids up front,
Tell me what you know you want
Someone to take care tonight.
Listening to the song, there are a few spots where it sounds like he's saying, "I believe that someone take care of me tonight" instead of "I'm in need". But Britt Daniel has always kind of garbled his lyrics and that's one of the joys of Spoon so.... take it or leave it.
