Am I totally off-base,
or did I see you turn your pretty face toward me?
Or did rosie-colored goggles
stumble in and switch the toggles
that create that realm of possibility?
Did hormonal saturation
infect my imagination
to detect smart of electricity?

Between you and I, there's something holy;
to deny it is to call the Lord a liar.
Cause our social magnetism
spun the sky into a prism,
and those colors set the wheel of love on fire
I could feel my heart beat quicken,
and the air began to thicken
and I know you must've heard that angel choir
singin' like a bird upon a

Shotgun
You may think me insane
cause this bar became a palace
and that glass, golden chalice
and that beer became the finest French Champagne.
And I'm usually not one
to so boldly proclaim
but you've made me a believer,
and it's true, I've got a fever,
and the only cure is...

One second and I learned that
you possess a most discerning sense of style.
Yeah, the way you compliment
the things that heaven must have sent you
had me searching for my breath for quite a while
And your mouth commenced to shinin'
like a precious yellow diamond
yeah, you really put the crack in, 'crack a smile.'

Hard not to admire your jean jacket
and that, 'party in the back' don't care hairdo
and I nearly lost my baring
couldn't help myself from staring
when I saw how you had placed all those tattoos
and the way your tube top struggled
to contain those healthy bubbles,
why, they'd pop if you just bent to tie your shoe
Like the barrel of a

Shotgun
You may think me insane
cause this bar became a palace
and that glass, golden chalice
and that beer became the finest French Champagne.

and it's true, I've got a fever,
and the only cure is...

I didn't catch your name
( it must be something like the moon,
or like the stars, or like a planet.
Jupiter? Probably not Pluto...)
What's your name again?
( Is it a state? Like Carolina, no?
Virginia? No? Then Georgia.
It's probably not New Mexico...)

Was it some other word for light
or something like the velvet night?
I bet it doesn't fit as tight a those blue jeans
Or was it something like your face?
Like, was it beautiful or Grace?
Or did your parents figure that would just be mean?

Please think of me as just another stranger
on the way to yet another bathroom fling
It's not as if there's really any danger
that somebody's ever offered you a ring

I could further sing your praises
but that'd probably just delay our gettin' down
and I'd offer to escort you
to my humble trailer court
but dear, I live way on the other side of town
Shall we try to the room
where we can let this love consume us,
or am I to leave this party with a frown?
Or should I go get my

Shotgun
