  • Topless models
    Doin' semaphore
    Wave their flags as she walks by
    And get ignored
    Illuminations
    On a rainy day
    When she walks, her footsteps sing
    A reckless serenade

    I've been tryna figure out exactly what it is I need
    Called up to listen to the voice of reason
    And got the answering machine

    The type of kisses
    Where teeth collide
    When she laughs, the heavens hum
    A stun gun lullaby
    Those twinkling vixens
    With the shining spiral eyes
    Their hypnosis goes unnoticed
    When she's walking by

    I've been tryna figure out exactly what it is I need
    Called up to listen to the voice of reason
    And got his answering machine

    I left my message
    But did he fuck back to me
    And now I'm stuck here wonderin'
    How it's meant to be

    Singin' a reckless serenade
    Reckless serenade
    Reckless serenade
    Reckless serenade

    Reckless serenade
    Reckless serenade
