Velvet Coat - Lyrics - Jackie Tohn

Velvet coat, why can't you be A little more like orange vest? Velvet coat, yes, I see You had to say these things to get them off your chest. You said if I spend my energy on you, I'll have none for my music. Getting rid of you is part of my cleansing process. It's not like I'd choose this. Velvet coat, why can't you be A little more like orange vest? Velvet coat, yes, I see You had to say these things to get them off your chest. I asked you why it's weird now We gave it a shot And you said well, well we were *** And now we're not, now we're not. Now we're not, now we're not. You said I don't have enough passion in me To put it in both my music and you. Look, it's going on 1:45 right now And I have to get my creative chopras in line, too And I need to be alone on the ride to Santa Cruz, you said Well I'm gonna start doing yoga, I'm gonna quit the smoking, I'm gonna start reading the paper. I'm gonna wake up early, Stop sleeping all day long, Start watching less Crossing Over with John Edward So I asked, should I come out to your show? Yeah, it's sad, I was still trying. To which you replied, if I said I cared one way or the other I'd really be lying. Cut to 3 months later, You shaved your head, got a rooster tattoo Oh yeah, you're a whole new you.. A little more like orange vest. Velvet coat, oh yes, I see, You had to say these things to get them off your chest Velvet coat, no love from me. You can't use me as a source of energy. Velvet coat, if nothing else, At least you're good for the comedy.
