Acrobat

written by Tanya Donelly & Dean Fisher

.


you'd have to be an acrobat to toucn her
where she can feel a thing
you'd have to be a racecar driver
to catch up with him

you'd have to be an astronaut
you'd have to be a shrink

'cause where they go
where they go
nobody knows

hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo

'cause where they go
where they go
nobody knows

nobody knows
nobody knows

nobody knows

she throws out her feet
he holds them
he stands on her hands
she trips him

you'd have to be an acrobat to touch her
you'd have to be a saint
you'd have to be a racecar driver

'cause where they go
where they go
nobody knows

hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
hooah hoo-hooah hoo-hooahoo
