Light Up or Leave me Alone

by Traffic







Sometimes I feel like I'm fading away,

Looking at me, I got nothin' to say.

Don't make me angry with the things games that you play,

Either light up or leave me alone.



Walk in my room, you lie on my bed,

Open your mouth, and shoot someone dead.

All of a sudden, you're inside my head,

Either light up or leave me alone.



Suspendin' my breath like a pull on the trees,

She's tryin' to tell me 'bout the birds and the bees,

The skirt that she's wearin' is way past her knees.

Either light up or leave me alone.



Up all night, preachin' your mind,

Come home in the morning with your latest find,

I'm gonna have to lay it to ya, honey, right on the line,

Either light up or leave me alone.
