M. A. ROSE
TEN FOOT POLE
I GAVE IT UP, I PUT IT OUT
I SET IT IN, AND I LAID IT DOWN
YOU PUSH AWAY, THEN PULL ME IN
YOU WANT NOTHING AT ALL AND EVERYTHING
AND I KNOW, I'M DIGGING A HOLE
WHILE YOU'RE LOOKING AT ME, WITH A TEN FOOT POLE
YOU LEAD ME ON, I TAKE THE BAIT
FOR A MINUTE OR TWO, IT FEELS SO GREAT
THEN YOU CLOSE IT DOWN, YOU DON'T MAKE A SOUND
AND INSINUATE SOMEDAY YOU'LL COME AROUND
AND LIKE A THIEF, MY HEART YOU STOLE
HITTING ME HARD, WITH A TEN FOOT POLE
NO REASON OR NO RHYME
WELL YOU RUN FROM LEFT TO RIGHT
YOUR SECRET CODE, NO ONE AROUND HERE CAN BREAK IT
YOU WALK ON THE LINE
YOU'RE SO REFINED AND SO SUBLIME
YOUR SECRET CODE, NO ONE AROUND HERE CAN CLAIM IT
SO DON'T FORGET ME NOT, I'LL BE AROUND
MAYBE I'LL BUMP INTO YOU SOMEWHERE DOWNTOWN
AND YOUR HEART WILL DROP, AND YOU'LL LOOK AWAY
AND THINK OF A MILLION THINGS YOU CAN'T SAY
AND THEN I'LL LAUGH, BECAUSE YOU'RE PLAYING YOUR ROLE
LOOKING AT ME, WITH A TEN FOOT POLE
YEAH YOU'RE LOOKING AT ME WITH A TEN FOOT POLE
YEAH YOU'RE LOOKING AT ME WITH A TEN FOOT POLE
YEAH YOU'RE LOOKING AT ME
