Tangerine Songtext
von Glass Animals

As cold as an old ice cream sandwich
As focused as Mr. Miyagi
You poke at your phone
Posting aerial photos of you and your smoothie

I can′t keep on making you happy
'Cause you got issues with your daddy
I miss Ramen noodles and laughing at you
And your gran in home movies

But I wish I could show you more of yourself
I wish I could make you somebody else
But I left it way too late
Are you stuck in your own ways?

I′m beggin', hands, knees, please, tangerine
Come on back to me
You got what I need, tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please, tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, tangerine


You let the devil in
And all you talk is money, money, money, money, money
It's so funny how it changes
How you feel, how you see, how you need, how you sleep

All your freedom, caffeine, how you′re looking at me
But I love it when the light
Sits on you just right
Tiny tangerine speckles painted in your eyes

Hands, knees, please, tangerine, come on back to me
You got what I need, tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please, tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, tangerine

Oh, my God
Drop the beat

You′ve been dreamlessly sleepin' for years
Super clear since the late 1990s
You only look at me properly now
When you′re drunk watching movies

Where are you? What happened? I want what we had
Where you gone? Where you hidin'?
It′s 2:23, you got "Friends" on repeat
On repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on re-


I wish I could show you more of yourself
I wish I could make you somebody else
But I left it way too late
Are you stuck in your own ways?

I'm beggin′, hands, knees, please, tangerine
Come on back to me
Got what I need, tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please, tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, tangerine

Hands, knees, please, tangerine, come on back to me
Got what I need, tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please, tanger...
Tangerine

I'm beggin', hands, knees, please, tangerine
Come on back to me
You got what I need, tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please, tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, tangerine (whoa)
