LYRICS:

I wish I could eat the salt off of your lost faded lips
We can cap the old times, make playing only logical harm
We can cap the old lines, make playing that nothing else will change
But she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
Oh, she's bad

But it's different now that I'm poor and aging, you'll never see this face again
You'll go stabbing yourself in the neck

And we can find new ways of living, make playing only logical harm
And we can top the old times, play-making that nothing else will change.
But she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, she's bad
Oh, she's bad

It's different now that I'm poor and aging, you'll never see this place again
and you go stabbing yourself in the neck
but it's different now that I'm poor and aging, you'll never see this face again
you'll go stabbing yourself in the neck

It's in the way that she poses,
it's in the things that she puts in my head
Her stories are boring and stuff
She's always calling my bluff
She puts the weights into my little heart
and she gets in my room and she takes it apart

She puts the weight...
She puts the weight...
She puts the weight...

It's in the way that she walks
Her heaven is never enough
She puts the weights in my heart
She puts, oh she puts the weights into my little heart

I just listen 'cause I'm a huge fan bit actually it's really cool Charlotte Martin is a nice singer and obstacle 1 is in the top 5 of 2000's best songs

[obstaclespecialist54]

I don't hate this as much as I would have thought. It's actually pretty good. I still think women should not sing Paul's lyrics, but I think I'll listen to this again. Obstacle 1 is the best song ever

[zack2544]

What a chilling cover of an already chilling song. I especially love the vocal adaptation.

[blackdragon42187]
