Rollercoaster

Song is from The Woods CD/LP, which is available at Subpop Records.
Official lyrics come with the album; I have modified them so that the lyrics posted here
reflect what I actually hear the band singing in the song.
Because that took me lots of time and effort, please do let me know
if you would like to use the lyrics I have posted here on your site.
Or even just reference my site on yours. Thanks!

sweet like my tomato
red cherry tomato
down at the market, pick out the ripe one
tempting me sorely I want to bite one
wait, save it for later

we had a good time at the beginning
it tasted just like all the things I was missing
I'll go at full boil 'til you
stop stop stop stop me later

stay and I will make you dinner
taste, each dish will be better
after the first bite say it's delicious
but appetite isn't what we predicted
would you want to heat it up later?

we had a good time at the beginning
it tasted just like all the things I was missing
I'll go at full boil 'til you
stop stop stop stop me later

rollercoaster
want to go back to the way things were
I'm on a rollercoaster
want to get back on the Tilt-A-Whirl

I'll be your monkey, a puppy,
I'll be your circus freak
I fell the first day, it took you a whole week
rollercoaster, can't we go back
to the way things were?
(we're on the rollercoaster
we're on the rollercoaster, yeah
we're on the rollercoaster
we're on the rollercoaster, yeah)

vertigo is the only clue
you're sick on me, I'm sick on you
rollercoaster
want to go back on the Tilt-A-Whirl

I'm dizzy and faithless, where is the ground?
you said that this thing would not go upside down
rollercoaster
want to get back to the way things were
(we're on the rollercoaster
we're on the rollercoaster, yeah
we're on the rollercoaster
we're on the rollercoaster, yeah)
all right...

sweet you're my tomato
red cherry tomato
I know that some of our days are bitter
stay with me honey things could get better
wait, wait until later

we had a good time at the beginning
it tasted just like all the things I was missing
I'll go at full boil 'til you
stop stop stop stop me later
