Grand Theft Romance 07-13-05

Flippin the knobs thru the radio stations
Well congratulations, you’re a new sensation,
A shortwave invasion…
Flying blind is how you unwind
You don’t care whose flag you tear now
You don’t care whose flag you tear now
You don’t care whose flag you tear now

You’ve got a knack for circumstance
This is a case of Grand Theft Romance
You’ve got a knack for circumstance
This is a case of Grand Theft Romance

You packed my heart into a plastic suitcase
Tied it off with half a shoelace,
In this case…
Been drivin for hours under meteor showers
Coughing your exhaust and holding me hostage
Coughing your exhaust and holding me hostage
Coughing your exhaust and holding me hostage

You’ve got a knack for circumstance
This is a case of Grand Theft Romance
You’ve got a knack for circumstance
This is a case of Grand Theft Romance

Well the ratings are in and it looks like they’re falling
Yeah that engine stalling sounds like karma calling,
Darling…
You run and hide every time and it's a suicide
Put the gun down so we can talk this out now
Put the gun down so we can talk this out now
Put the gun down so we can talk this out now

You’ve got a knack for circumstance
This is a case of Grand Theft Romance
You’ve got a knack for circumstance
This is a case of Grand Theft Romance

You don’t care whose flag you tear now...
Grand Theft Romance

Coughing your exhaust and holding me hostage...
Grand Theft Romance

Put down the gun so we can talk this out now...
