Brandy Clark - Stripes Lyrics
Woah, woah, woah, woah[VERSE 1:]You were lyin' there with nothing onBut a goofy little grin and a platinum blondeI can't believe you'd do that on our bedI got a pistol and I got a bulletAnd a pissed off finger just'a itchin' to pull itThe only thing keepin' me from losin' my head[CHORUS:]Is I hate stripes and orange ain't my colorAnd if I squeeze that trigger tonightI'll be wearin' one or the otherThere's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashionThe only thing savin' your lifeIs that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripesWoah, woah, woah[VERSE 2:]I could fall in love with the prison guardI could sell cigarettes in the prison yardDon't think hard time would be that hard on meI could pick up trash on the side of the roadBut I'd die if I saw someone I knowAin't the chains, it's the clothes that's stoppin' me[CHORUS:]I hate stripes and orange ain't my colorAnd if I squeeze that trigger tonightI'll be wearin' one or the otherThere's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashionThe only thing savin' your lifeIs that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes[BRIDGE:]Oh, and one shot ain't worth a bad mugshotGod knows I wouldn't be caught holdin' up a numberWhile the whole town's starin' at the pictureIn the paper of me wearin' stripes[FINAL CHORUS:]There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashionThe only thing savin' your lifeIs that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripesAnd orange ain't my colorAnd if I squeeze that trigger tonightI'll be wearin' one or the otherThere's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashionThe only thing savin' your lifeIs that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripesWoah, woah, woah, woah
