Muted Beatings (Recorded at Le Point Ephémère, Paris) Songtext
von Albert Hammond, Jr.

So, you′re freaking me out
You had your looks in your skull
I'm catching muted beatings in my lungs
You act like you′re in my head
You sit me up in the back
I wanna know your lips upon my tongue

Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I′m Charlemagne


Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can′t breathe under your skirt
Oh-uh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress, too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette
Oh-uh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I don′t care
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I don't care
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I don′t care
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Words come out of your mouth
They hit me hard like a brick
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know you like me possessed
But lately I've been a mess
You got me thinkin′
Are we closer than before?

Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I′m Charlemagne


Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can′t breathe under your skirt
Oh-uh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress, too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette
Oh-uh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I don′t care
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I don't care
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
I don′t care
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

I don't care
You′re a cult in this place
I don't care
Watch my skull, give and take
I don't care
Where will we go?
I don′t care
Where will we go?
I don′t care
