Play With Me

Written by Bootsauce, from The Brown Album, 1990


The devil's in the bathroom, counting out his money
While I was in the bedroom, land of milk and honey
Babies play in sandbox land, quite the sight to see
Nubiles on the roof tops, binoculars for free
And all I wanted was you to come play with me

Maybe tomorrow...

Now, I was out there sleeping, just trying to make a buck
But daylight now was creeping, all the windows shut
Girlfriend's off in TV land, dope on a soap
We video the cartoons, now that's where there's hope
And all I wanted was you to come play with me
And all I wanted was you to come play with me

Maybe tomorrow...

Those neon lights were blinking, calling me outside
Tonnes of crosstown traffic, I never could abide
Better throw my shoes on, I'm gonna chase some cars
Those corner stores are closing, I get my pack of tar
Little sister's saving the time of the day
The birthday suits we play in had better go away
Someone started waving, I'd better shut 'em up
Nevermind your reasons, you'd better give it up
And all I wanted was you to come play with me
And all I wanted was you to come play with me

Yeah...it's tomorrow...

With me... (x 2)


Notes:

  • "Play With Me" has the least samples of any tracks on The Brown Album.
  • This, quite honestly, is my favourite Bootsauce song.
