Show & Tell (Ink Today)
If my tattoo lady returns my call
I'll show you what I believe
I think I got this all worked out
I'll wear my heart on my sleeve
Ink today is our front page
Ink's our headline to share
Ink has become our quick silver
Ink is our story to wear
I want to follow your whole life story
One drawing, one memory at a time
I want to take every minute I have
Reading you line by line
(Ink today, ink today)
I want to read every page of your art
The best parts written in Braille
One day I'll know every beat of your heart
From your bottom I'll plumb every vale
Her name's not Julia
Why would I fool ya
She's just a girl that I knew
Ink today is our front page
Ink's our headline to share
Ink has become our quick silver
Ink is our story to wear
I hope my tattoo lady calls me back
I've got something I need to invite you
I think I've got this all figured out
But I can't find a way to excite you
(Ink today, ink today)
I've got a question I have to ask you
If my tattoo lady returns my call today
