lyrics

We held hands, but never made plans
To do better
And if you ask me, you’ll see just why
Pet names give shame
To real babies
Cupid’s arrow is always aimed
At my sighs
Fresh on the scene, with some dreams
And a half smile
Wishing to tell a story or an anecdote
Worthwhile
Paycheck to paycheck
Main chick to no chick
No pot to piss in, no couch to kiss on
Long gone

And I see you shake your head and wonder, “Why’s he a fool?”
And I know lamenting out loud’s the antithesis of cool
Could you give me solace, some cut of that age-old advice
Divine intervention will do, just help me think twice
Next time, relax, ignore the chore you make out of
This silly life and the payment of your dues
Embrace, make love, kiss deep, with tongue and remember
This whole thing is bigger than me and you

Truth be told, a stranglehold
Time helps grow
Enough vitriol between you two
To fill a farm silo
Looking cute in a business suit
And heavy frames
There’s no point in not smiling
There’s no shame

And I see you shake your head and wonder, “Why’s he a fool?”
And I know lamenting out loud’s the antithesis of cool
Could you give me solace, some cut of that age-old advice
Divine intervention will do, just help me think twice
Next time, relax, ignore the chore you make out of
This silly life and the payment of your dues
Embrace, make love, kiss deep, with tongue and remember
This whole thing is bigger than me and you
