lyrics

They think her opinions are tired and trite. She goes to bed early, throws my friends out at night. Her body is something else, smiles are all lies but I follow her around half of the time. Run the bath and slink away, dip down low below her feet. Trumpet sounds and tired beats, throwing plates at cupboard doors. Baby, why don't you just go away? I'm in my wrinkled shirt and dirty socks but that's the price of sleeping in and hearing what I want to hear. Kitchen crawls and headboard knocks all night. People, don't you understand how much better it will be? Everyone in this country is in debt for nothing but sweetheart we've got it figured out. Bring me my coffee in bed, wearing nothing but my shirt. I don't want to hear that from your mouth. You're bored and you've got those tired eyes. Take my information and leave, you don't know me and no one ever did. You're a slut, lets have a kid. Markets crash and groceries rot but we can always go back to the drive in, eat ice cream cones and visit your mom. Lovers aren’t meant to get along.

Snake bite venom, Cadillac depression. Worn out feeling and dime store erections. Same last name, loss of affection correlate. I guess I was a frantic night astray. Ate up with desire in the worst way. Like the bums don't eat too much, but darling I've been starved for quite some time, for a little fun and quiet talk.
