"Certain Things Are Likely" lyrics

These come from Jeff Grote, who was kind enough to scan the lyrics to the Kissing the Pink song "Certain Things Are Likely". A few years ago I decided to sit down and figure out the lyrics myself, since they weren't available on the web anywhere, but discovered that I couldn't understand a dang thing. I tried to buy a copy of the KTP album but every time I ordered a copy from a seller on Amazon, they mysteriously didn't have the album to send. Frustrated, I gave up. That's why I am extremely, unendingly grateful to Jeff for scanning these in, and I offer them here in text mainly for convenience.

CERTAIN THINGS ARE LIKELY - Kissing the Pink

Girl lean over bendy chair
Peer at creaky card
On her feet the white sock pair
Beneath the ground is hard

What's your mind on
What's your mind on

Patience in the line she sees
Snaps another card
Curtain wave above her head
Sun it shines so hard

What's your mind on
What's your mind on

Health shape body weight
Body made of steel
Push it up, drive it hard
Drive it like a wheel

Certain things are likely
Certain things I blame
Certain things are likely
They hypnotize me, hypnotize me
Like falling in love

In this race, fever face
Girl stand on her toes
China blue, look at you
Tattoo how it grows

What's your mind on
What's your mind on

Health shape body weight
Body made of steel
Push it up, drive it hard
Drive it like a wheel

Certain things are likely
Certain things I blame
Certain things are likely
They hypnotize me, hypnotize me
Like falling in love

Drive it like a wheel
Body made of steel
Sun it shines so hard
Hypnotize me, hypnotize me

Certain things I blame
Certain things I own
Some are too expensive
Help me build a throne

Buckle this, buckle that
Buckle all the way
Certain things are likely
Like falling in love

In this race, fever face
Girl stand on her toes
China blue, look at you
Tattoo how it grows

In this race, fever face
Girl stand on her toes
China blue, look at you
Tattoo how it grows
