Verse 2:
She's always invested her assets wisely
She does her homework uncompromisingly
Finally deciding just what she wants
She knows what to flaunt
And to obtain a shiny new purchase
She'll undergo countless strip searches
She'll go through the motions down on her knees
Trading want for need
Her crooked little heart
Crooked little heart, crooked little heart

Bridge 1:
The lesson you learn from supply and demand
Is sell when it's high and get what you can
'Cause your assets depreciate over time
And you'll find you're past your prime

Verse 3:
She's only made of flesh, blood, and bone
Still her memory lingers when you're alone
And each time she walks out with some other guy
You crawl away to die
Crooked little heart
Crooked little heart, crooked little heart

Bridge 2:
It's only a matter of barter and trade
When you balance your books at the end of the day
Though the currency changes one thing's the same
Somehow we all get paid

Verse 4:
She's got deep blue eyes that look right through you
And a sharp little tongue to cut you in two
If you ever question the things she does
Or exactly where she was
With her crooked little
Crooked little heart, crooked little heart

Coda:
Crooked little heart
Crooked little heart
Crooked little heart
