Drunk dial, then I wish that you would
It′s such a pretty house, in a pretty yard, in a pretty neighborhood
Goddammit, I wish that it wereA metaphor for a feeling or the hard cover of your new memoir
Oh, oh my god, look at all the stuff you've got
Does it make your loneliness more bearable?
You look a lot like me but remiss the oft anxiety
Sated and I wish that I was
Better go, better go, better go without me
′Cause I don't, I don't, I don′t know the thing to say
It′s all demand 'til they need where your body stands
Guess I ain′t using my body anyway
Guess I ain't using my body anyway
Anyway, so tired and I wish that I was
Anyone in another state, in another place, in another neighborhood
Goddamnit, who′s taking you home?
Goddamnit, I wish that I could
(No no, no)
Oh my god, you got everything you wanted
Even a bloodless diamond rock, who would have thought?
You look a lot like you
But maybe I also do
And If the house is glass, then I am not (why?)
Better go, better go, better go without me
'Cause I don′t, I don't, I don't know the thing to say
It′s all demand ′til they need where your body stands
Guess I ain't using my body anyway
Guess I ain′t using my body anyway
Anyway
One by fire and one by plague
Don't think that I′ll see you again
But I don't mind it as I once did
I push the door ′cause it opens in
All my tension taut and inhabited, yes
Oh my god, another brownstone city block
"Pull out the playground, build a lot if they're smart"
You say 'cause you′ve got to live
And I cared and you never did
Hope your computer keeps you warm where I could not
Hope your computer keeps you warm where I could not
Better go, better go, better go without me
′Cause I don't, I don′t, I don't know the thing to say
It′s all demand until they need where your body stands
Guess I ain't using my body anyway
Guess I ain′t using my body anyway
