Moral Straightjacket Lyrics

It's getting late

I know that you're in your bed

And as much as I would like to join you,

I'll be staying home instead



If only for a token display,

I would like to keep my conscience clean

But am I righteous as I say?



My glasses crack when you're around

My alter ego gets in the way

Don't want to look through broken eyes

Because I...



Sometimes I hear

a whisper when you mention my name

And I'd swear it was an invitation

and I don't know if I can behave



I know you're as perverted as me,

therefore you and I should not be left alone

My temptation is my enemy



I may have lost some of my purity,

but I refuse to relinquish my nobility

The ice in my veins has yet to overcome my blood

So just continue staring at me

and I will surely freeze up



Keep me outside and I'll patrol your backyard

with my moral straightjacket

Kiss me one time and I'll bury myself

with my suit of armor
