Onto You Songtext
von Caitlin Canty

What′s that new song you've been humming
Your mind some place else
Thumbs drumming on the steering wheel
Man you′re up to something
A warm front means a cold one's coming
You got an explanation for every clue
I'm onto you

You′ve been strutting around like some Dive Bar Duke
With your Pearly Snaps
Bought a brand new suit
Polished your disposition
Even shined your shoes
I′m onto you


We sit here in the kitchen reading paper news
Now have you've been wishing I was someone who
Could do all the dishes
Light up a room
Give you long kisses that send you to the moon
You slammed the screen door honey
I see through
I′m onto you

Do you think you could find a little sweeter action
A brighter laugh
Longer lashes
We all look the same when it falls to ashes
But you could burn the house down and look like nothing happened
You're singing that same song
It′s out of tune
I'm onto you

The moon is hanging low like a landlord′s light
On a dingy ceiling on a dirty sky
You're driving up ahead I follow two snake eyes
My heart is burning red as your tail lights
Drop out of sight into the blue

You pull up the driveway in the fallen night
Familiar crunch of gravel underneath your tires
Wonder why no one bothered to leave on a light
Fumble with your keys blindly step inside
Feel the cold air rush from an empty room
