lyrics

SKELETON KEY

Got her photo with her Christ
And his autograph tonight
Kissed his lips and held his hand
Told her friends she's with the band

Mister innocent I'm sure
She's too young and immature
Sincerity is the new vulgarity

Come on baby you don't wanna be that nice
Sell yourself for any price
Sacrifice your self-respect
You're just dying to connect

Look at all the pretty whores
Pick the one who will be yours
Say those lines you've memorized
Be like all the other guys

Mister innocent I'm sure
She's too dumb and insecure
Sincerity is the new vulgarity

Come on baby
You don't wanna be that nice
Sell yourself for any price
Sacrifice your self-respect
You're just dying to connect

Put your voodoo on her
Don't be so superstitious
Put your voodoo on her
Your words are so delicious
Put your voodoo on her
Don't be so superstitious
Put your voodoo on her
Remember hide the mirrors

Ink your signature into her skin
You just want to be wanted
When you smile you are so sweet
Let's pretend that I'm naive
Close my eyes and I can't see
Where I've got my tongue in cheek

Let it run its course and you'll be redeemed
Open every door for your self-esteem,
Got your skeleton key and it's safe to say
Everyone is starved for attention these days
