Best Bet

Third time’s a charm at the Three Speed
I twist your rubber arm to take me home with you
And oh these rows of dominoes that line the bar then stumble home
Are nothing but trouble and I want some
My eyes begin to dance when I’ve had a few
It doesn’t take too much this will be good for you
And hey I made it plain as day
My baby said that it’s ok
And do you smell trouble
Do you want some?
Let me be your best bet
For a little bit
For a little while
I can take the hit
When it really hits
I will go out in style
Let me be your best bet
For a little while
Romance is alive and wandering through Parkdale
You stand there like a bullseye for my fantasies
And oh I know the best before
Can waft the hurt a mile away
But it’s still love if you look at it sideways
Let me be your best bet
For a little bit
For a little while
I can take the hit
When it really hits
I will go out in style
Let me be your best bet
For a little while
Love was not made just for you and I
And I’d say it’s less cupid and more samurai
And I have seen the break of day from both sides now
And either way
It’s only a goddamn beautiful sunrise
Let me be your best bet
For a little bit
For a little while
I can take the hit
When it really hits
I will go out in style
Let me be your best bet
For a little while
