[ti:Straight As A Die]

[00:12.37]She roots out her best earrings with a comb
[00:18.62]The ones that go with her rowdy red hair
[00:22.78]Weaves her way between the plastic and the bones
[00:28.26]Leaves all her empty evenings hanging in the air
[00:34.27]And he don't mind that she's a short-tempered girl
[00:39.25]He don't mind that she may soon say goodbye
[00:44.36]He don't mind 'cause she's got something he loves
[00:48.69]She's as straight as a die
[01:01.11]She sees the men out changing the state
[01:05.96]Knows they stoop through her eyes are half drowned
[01:11.25]Hears the steeple say it's a quarter past eight
[01:16.78]Moves on in a hurry well she's a long way from town
[01:22.44]He don't mind that she's a short-tempered girl
[01:27.74]He don't mind that she may soon make him cry
[01:33.20]He don't mind 'cause she's got something he loves
[01:37.28]She's as straight as a die
[02:00.40]We won't get away from this either
[02:05.64]No matter how hard we try
[02:10.74]The truth is there to catch us
[02:15.74]The truth is going to save our lives
[02:24.63]He's in a thrill of anticipation
[02:29.82]So glad he bought something small
[02:32.16]To give her for a gift
[02:35.06]He feels kind of silly
[02:37.20]In case she thinks he's having her on
[02:40.36]All he meant was
[02:41.97]She's got a friend she can kiss
[02:46.17]And he don't mind that she's a short-tempered girl
[02:51.31]He don't mind that she soon has to fly
[02:56.54]He don't mind 'cause she's got something he loves
[03:00.82]She's as straight as a die
