"Flowerball" lyrics - THE WOMBATS

THE WOMBATS
"Flowerball"

I've got the cash if you've got the hugs?
It's been a rough week
It's been an unproductive month
I swapped contact with reality
For a country house in a bright translucent daydream

[Pre-Chorus:]
Don't you get bored of them giving you nothing?
I only press pause when you press play in my stomach

[Chorus:]
Flowerball, flowerball
How can you waltz through my bloodstream and then never call?
You make me shake like a waveform
You're my work of modern art and I want more

I'll take the punch if you'll sell the kick?
It's been a while since we tripped the light fantastic
I wanna hear guitars and cymbals sing
I'm tired of deciphering her senile fax machine

[Pre-Chorus:]
Don't you get bored of them giving you nothing?
I only press pause when you press play in my stomach

[Chorus:]
Flowerball, flowerball
How can you waltz through my bloodstream and then never call?
You make me shake even though I'm warm
You're my work of modern art and I want more

[Bridge:]
Like a funeral needs an audience
Like a skeptic needs a church
It's not fun unless it hurts

[Chorus:]
Flowerball
How can you waltz through my bloodstream and then never call?
You make me shake, shake like a waveform
You're my work of modern art and I want more
I want more
