Ocupado - Can't Get a Read Lyrics

So I can't get a read
I can't get a read

So every time you look you find
A new kind of love, a new kind of lover
Why don't you just settle down and drive
Across the bridge and pay a tarot reader
Your cards show love can't last forever
So skip the movie and you split the dinner
Separate cabs!

But I can't get a read
But I can't get a read

So every time you sleep you find
A new kind of dream, a new kind of dreamer
It's not the first time you took
The back burner babe to your steam punk future
You learned that love brands us forever
And that fire could burn a whole lot bigger
In a book!

Shooting for stars
Shut down
I'll never come down
And she could
She could say
I'll never be my own

And I can't get a read
And I can't get a read

So every time you hit the scene
You find a boy wonder, a trust fund drummer
Over down there by Venice Beach
Uh-huh? Uh-huh! Uh-huh? Uh-huh!
Where the drum circle bangs out forever
Plan to hit the next burning man together
With the band!

Shooting for stars
Shut down
I'll never come down
And she could
She could say
I'll never be my own
