Ready

I want to jump into a stranger's car
Lose my only set of keys
Wash my hair in a bucket of rainwater
Walk until my shoes fall apart
I want to drink a man under the table
Tire the rest with my chatter
Leave when I ought to stay
Stay when I ought to leave
 
I want to try love with a girl1
Wake up in a strange apartment
Lie about my name and my job
Wash the number off the back of my hand
 
And then I will be ready to be yours
And then I will be ready to be yours
 
I want to sit on the pavement
No memory of where I came from
No idea of where I'm going
And set off for the airport
 
I want to drive to a strange port
Drop my phone in the sea2
Lose the signal forever3
 
I want to fall off a rock
Be discovered alive; my arm in plaster
Flowers sent to the hospital
but I won't stick around to see them4
 
I want to tease a child I don't know
Steal a wallet
Get an electric shock from a socket
And get one good punch in
 
And then I will be ready to be yours
And then I will be ready to be yours
And then I will be ready to be yours
And then I will be ready to be yours
