I thought I saw you in the Battleship But it was only a look alike She was nothing but a vision trick Under the warning light She was close Close enough to be your ghost But my chances turned to toast When I asked her if I could call her your name I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook Huddled up in wicker chair I wandered up for a closer look And kissed whoever was sitting there She was close And she held me very tightly 'Til I asked awfully politely "Please, can I call you her name?" And I elongated my lift home Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round I smelt your scent on the seatbelt And kept my shortcuts to myself I thought I saw you in the Parrot's Beak Messin' with the smoke alarm It was too loud for me to hear her speak And she had a broken arm It was close So close that the walls were wet And she wrote it out in Letraset "No, you can't call me her name" Tell me, where's your hiding place? I'm worried I'll forget your face And I've asked everyone I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along I elongated my lift home Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round I smelt your scent on the seatbelt And kept my shortcuts to myself I saw your sister in the Cornerstone On the phone to the middle man When I saw that she was on her own I thought she might understand That she was close Well, you couldn't get much closer She said, "I'm really not supposed to, but yes You can call me anything you want"
@@ArtByAshleyJayne No that's not it, I don't mean the studio version, I mean the guitars being played here are out of tune with each other, it's very noticeable in the intro.

I thought I saw you in the Battleship
But it was only a look alike
She was nothing but a vision trick
Under the warning light
She was close
Close enough to be your ghost
But my chances turned to toast
When I asked her if I could call her your name
I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
Huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look
And kissed whoever was sitting there
She was close
And she held me very tightly
'Til I asked awfully politely
"Please, can I call you her name?"
And I elongated my lift home
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
And kept my shortcuts to myself
I thought I saw you in the Parrot's Beak
Messin' with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm
It was close
So close that the walls were wet
And she wrote it out in Letraset
"No, you can't call me her name"
Tell me, where's your hiding place?
I'm worried I'll forget your face
And I've asked everyone
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
I elongated my lift home
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
And kept my shortcuts to myself
I saw your sister in the Cornerstone
On the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand
That she was close
Well, you couldn't get much closer
She said, "I'm really not supposed to, but yes
You can call me anything you want"
❤❤❤❤
Guitar is out of tune
Hahahahahahah how the hell…
It's on purpose, a technique called backmasking. If you look up "cornerstone explained" people have broken the recording down.
