What I Wouldn't Do Lyrics

If we were children, I would bake you a mud pie
Warm and brown beneath the sun
Never learned to climb a tree, but I would try
Just to show you what I'd done

Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe

If I were old, my dearest, you would be older
But I would crawl upon your lap
Wrap a blanket 'round our frail little shoulders
And I'd die happily like that

Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, if I had you

So lace your hands 'round the small of my back
And I will kiss you like a king
I will be your bride, I'll keep you warm at night
I will sing, I will sing

It was now and we were both in the same place
Didn't know how to say the words
With my heart ticking like a bomb in a birdcage
I left before someone got hurt


Cause it was what I wouldn't do
I had you, babe, I had you
It was what I wouldn't do
When I had you, babe, when I had you

A Fine Frenzy was the initial recording name of American singer, songwriter, pianist and actor Alison Sudol (born December 23, 1984 in Seattle, Washington). The first studio album One Cell In The Sea was released on 17 July 2007. The first single, "Almost Lover", peaked at number 25 on US Billboard's Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart. There have been no releases since 2012. On 24 November 2017, Alison Sudol released "Enough Honey", the debut single under her own name; an album under her own name followed in 2018.

In an interview with www.spinner.com, Sudol shared how she came up with the name "(I) had a bunch of books open on a table, "a fine frenzy" jumped off a page of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' [Shakespeare] and it was just right, though every now and then I wonder if it's a bit ... flowery."

Sudol developed the sound of A Fine Frenzy - hypnotic piano arrangements under classic American melody fused into irresistible, atmospheric songs with the power to reach around the world.

The second album, Bomb in a Birdcage, was released on 8 September 2009. A third album, Pines, was released in 2012.
