First Base

If I was a payphone

You'd use me up and take some

Quarters from my bank

And it wouldn't matter if I tried

My heart dangles on a coiled line

Wrapped around your waist

You want me 'til you're satisfied

I piss you off and pretend to cry

I'm lying to your face

I'm throwing quarters down the kitchen sink now

'Cause I'm something that you never even think about

Hope the drain clogs up when I turn the water on

'Cause I heard what you said to an old friend

In the front yard

How you're halfway in, and you're so sure that

It's my fault

I'm just a friend and, I could pretеnd that

I forgive you in the end, but it's too hard

It's just a slap in thе face

And we're still on first base

If you touch me like you cared to keep

Would I take pills just to fall asleep?

Lonely when I wake

Hanging from your lifeline

I wish you'd wanna hold me in the morning time

So, patiently I pace

And I see you every time I blink

Now your reflection's in the kitchen sink

How could I care so much when you don't care at all?

'Cause I heard what you said to an old friend

In the front yard

How you're halfway in, and you're so sure that

It's my fault

I'm just a friend and I could pretend

That I forgive you in the end, but it's too hard

It's just a slap in the face

We're still on first base

Ooh, I wish I was, I wish

I was with you

Wish I was, I wish I could

See through

Oh, kiss me with the lights on

In your room

I wish I was, I wish I was

How could you say, how could you say

How could you say?

How could you say, how could you say

How could you say?

'Cause I heard what you said to an old friend

In the front yard

How you're halfway in, and you're so sure that

It's my fault

And I could pretend that I forgive

You in the end, but it's too hard

It's just a slap in the face

We're still on first base
