Mother May I Sleep With Danger?

Mother may I sleep with danger, please
It’s been knocking on my door since I was seventeen
Oh oh and you saw but you chose to ignore
But now it’s more than a wish, it’s a dream
Now I don’t understand how you can hold me back
You said: Baby learn your lessons when you step on cracks
Oh there’s no time to fall
Your existence would call

And I guess there’s just no other way
I’ve been drawn to a new escape
Cause I’m wearing bamboo and I’m picking up zoots
I’ve slipped away
Now I’m tonguing on a Rizla
And your sachet snows a deal for us

Oh and dangers got me wrapped up round his thumb
But it’s no trap
‘Cause I’m in love
I said I’m in love
I said I’m in love
Yeah oh oh
I said I’m in love
I said I’m in love, love

Mother may I sleep with danger, please
It’s been knocking on my door since I was seventeen
Oh oh and you saw but you choose to ignore
But now it’s more than a wish, it’s a dream
Now I don’t understand how you can hold me back
You said: Baby learn your lessons when you step on cracks
Oh no there’s no time to fall
How you go oh

I’ll get what I want, you see
Cause I planted treads so carefully
And you won’t won’t won’t won’t ever know

So mother may I sleep with danger, please
It’s been knocking on my door since I was seventeen
Oh oh and you saw
But now it’s more than a wish, it’s a dream
