lyrics: I can’t wait to take the running stitches out of this the spider threads that you can’t see that hold it all together and keep it all in place it’s the moment of truth, it’s the moment of truth it’s the moment of truth, it’s the moment of truth it’s the moment of truth, it’s the moment of truth it’s the moment of truuuuuuuuuûüuuūūuth she’s gonna take the stitches out of me she’s gonna take the stitches out of me she’s gonna take these stitches out of me so I can breathe I can see it when she looks at me knowingly knowing how to make me sweat and afterwards I’m so upset she folds it up and threads the pleat it’s love that I just can’t believe I can’t wait to take the running stitches out of this the spider threads that you can’t see that hold it all together that will never be replaced it’s the moment of truth, it’s the moment of truth it’s the moment of truth, it’s the moment of truth it’s the moment of truth, it’s the moment of truth it’s the moment of truth, truth, truth, truth she’s gonna take the stitches out of me she’s gonna take the stitches out of me she’s gonna take these stitches out of me so I can breathe I can see it when she looks at me knowingly smocking is an ancient technique that gives fabrics elasticity these days we stretch plastic threads that hadn’t been invented yet
