about

12/06/05, The Crocodile - Seattle, WA

The narrator in this early example of an upbeat Purrs tune seems to be so totally OK with his love interest leaving town that he's willing to foot the bill just to make sure she leaves.
Pretty stand up guy in my opinion...

lyrics

Hey babe, hey baby hey I can see
That you want to leave me
You want to leave and get yourself free
Hey babe I can see that you want to leave and get yourself free
Yeah

Sha la la la, Sha la la la, Sha la la la, Sha la la la, ho
Let me tell you ‘bout the loose talk ticking time bomb
Needs a reaction to get my opinion ‘bout living in this town
With its distractions got you spinning
Around and around and around and around

I’m gonna pay for everything
I’m gonna pay for everything that you need
To get out of this town
To get out this town and back on your feet
I’m gonna pay for everything that you need to get out this town
And back on your feet
Yeah...
