Take Me Apart

Music and Lyrics © Matthew Ebel

Take me apart
and see what makes me tick.
Take me apart,
throw me up against a wall and see what sticks.
And when you put me back together again
I’ll be better than I’ve been.

Am I your favorite project or am I just a toy?
I look around at the strange, strange tools you employ.
Between the trebuchet and rocket-powered Chevrolet
I hope you’ve got some time today to play
with me.
Oh boy.

Take me apart
and see what makes me tick.
Take me apart,
break it down and get to work ’cause you’re my fix.
And when you put me back together again
I’ll be better than I’ve been.

You know Adam and Jamie wouldn’t do what you do.
Sure they’re all kinds of crazy, but they wear helmets too.
And just like DMB I wish that you’d crash into me,
I made a pot of sanity and tea.
Just tea
for two.

Take me apart
and see what makes me tick.
Take me apart,
baby give me all you’ve got ’cause damn we click.
And when you put me back together again
I’ll be better than I’ve been.
