Walking Disasters

The Wombats

She used to get her kicks 
from a four to the floor
But now she's always wasted
A total looker but she's jaded
The kind of shivering wreck that I adore
I can't offer you a rescue
Well I can tell you what I'd do

I'd tell my mother that I love her dearly
And tell my father that I need him back again
And if these words won't drop from your lips
I will be your freudian slip 

And flowers might wilt when we walk past
And self-help might help 
when it makes us laugh
Only finding questions in answers

You and I are just walking disasters
You and I are just walking disasters
You and I are just walking disasters

She only finds her love in a downtown score
Consumption makes her stronger
You're the sweetest anaconda
The kind of lack of respect that I adore
I can't offer you a rescue
But when you've lost all that you have left to lose

I'd tell my mother that I love her dearly
And tell my father that I need him back again
And if these words won't drop from your lips
I will be your freudian slip

As sharp as a knife and as blunt as a wheel
You'll be my calm I'll be your pneumatic drill
And what we'll never want, we'll always need
Right now we need some pop psychology
To keep us up-beat

So tell your mother that you love her dearly
And tell your father you won't lock him out again
And if these words won't drop from your lips
I will be your freudian slip

And flowers might wilt when we walk past
And self-help might help 
when it makes us laugh
Only finding questions in answers

You and I are just walking disasters
You and I are just walking disasters
You and I are just walking disasters
