don't touch!! Lyrics

I've been pacing a hole through my kitchen tile

All night

Counting in a six-beat breath

And counting out a nine

We always say things we don't mean

But I'm not a mind-reader

Now either I look like a drama queen

Or a man-eater

And I checked with friends

Make it make sense

You don't want love

But you don't do less

It's impeccable work

A cinematic mess

But if you don't know

Then back up and don't touch

If you don't know

Then maybe this'll be too much for you

I'm starting to resent the responsibility

Remind you gently what the word "platonic" means

I don't know what you want from me

Maybe this is news for you, but there's abundant history

Of lovers around the world creating absent-minded misery

And you scooted a little closer to me

Did you notice?

Oh, I hate how bad I want you

Cause at this point I must insist

And I checked with friends

Make it make sense

I'm hot and fun

And you're on the fence?

You know, honestly

It doesn't really make a difference

But if you don't know

Then back up and don't touch

If you don't know

Then maybe this'll be too much for you

I'm starting to resent the responsibility

Remind you gently what the word platonic means

And I don't know what you want from me

And I checked online

They said I'm fine

That you're interested but it's not a sign

It's a perfect fit, and then you declined

Now you're scooting closer

Yes I'm fine

Honey, who has time for regression lines?

I ran the numbers, lost my mind

I breath in six, I breath out nine

(One, two, three, four

Five, six, seven, eight, nine)

But if you don't know

Then back up and don't touch

If you don't know

Then maybe this'll be too much for you

I'm starting to resent the responsibility

Remind you gently what the word platonic means

I don't know what you want from me

But if you don't know

Then don't touch
