Take My Call by Bad Cop/Bad Cop Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's obvious I never had a map
Just a drawing on the back of a placemat
From a late-night restaurant, in coffee and crayon
I scribbled out my childish plans of attack
I swear I never meant to get so lost
Or drag you through this rotten, twisted plot
In which all my best intentions, too predictable to mention
Misfired and steered us straight onto the rocks

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes it's easier to say
That it was just one big mistake
Not the gestalt of many small ones
All my fault, and I can call them all by name
And the highest hope for tragedy
Is a lesson and a song
So, I dismantled carefully
The ways I did you wrong

[Chorus]
If you ever decide to take my call
I would gladly surrender it all
[Verse 2]
My sleeping mind pulls out a dream that I waylaid
To see the floats the day after the Rose Parade
Smell the flowers, share a coffee as we walk, alarm goes off
And I awake alone in the bed I've made

[Pre-Chorus]
Because it's easier to say
That it was just one big mistake
Not the gestalt of many small ones
All my fault, and I can call them all by name
And the highest hope for tragedy
Is a lesson and a song
So I dismantled carefully
The ways I did you wrong

[Chorus]
If you ever decide to take my call
I would gladly surrender it all

[Bridge]
Leave a little piece of me (Leave a little piece)
Outside beneath the loquat trees (In your backyard)
Where I can stay, and grow, and love you (And love you)

[Chorus]
If you ever decide to take my call
I would gladly surrender it all
If you ever decide to take my call
I would gladly surrender it all
If you ever decide to take my call
