Taper Jean Girl
Kings of Leon · Boxed [2011]
Aha shake bury your eyes in a secret place
Aha shake black as night on a Sunday
Cunts watch their bodies, no room for make up
i think he's tasted, tasted the watcher
Heartbreak knockin' 'em down like the 7th grade
heartbreak, cigarettes and songs, with a winter's chafe
heartbreak keep like my daughter and a run away
Aha shake tapered jean girl kills me
