Lyrics

"you're a fool with a goblet" she said
I said "cool pen, can I borrow it?"
she said "yeah, that's fine just don't swallow it
or walk off down to the bar with it"
and I said "nah, I just need to write some shit
on a white piece of paper with lines on it"
and she said "that's cool I'm fine with this"
through two cracked, purple, pursed wine stained lips
the kind good for lying with
the kind'll make you cry in bed
that lucky dog is lying dead
that pure joy feel like your flying head
now I'm writing on a pizza box
boomers kicking like a dirty cop
no warrant but a quota clocked
now I need some pizza for my pizza box
don't tell me that you
don't tell me that you
don't tell me that you
need your pen
I'm in the middle of the middle of sentence
I'm in the middle of the middle of sentence
"Why the fuck you writing in the corner like a menace?
it's your birthday party and these people are your friends"
and now I'm trying hard to pretend
that I ain't never seen your only fans
I'm kinda hoping that this party ends though
'cause boohoo birthday happened again
I need some pizza for my pizza box
don't tell me that you
don't tell me that you
don't tell me that you
need your pen
I'm in the middle of the middle of sentence
I'm in the middle of the middle of sentence
"Why the fuck you writing in the corner like a menace?
It's your birthday party and these people are your friends"
I feel real small
when love and life get strange
and I didn't see it
and you walked away
I can't believe it
that you and I are the same
the pizza that was in this box
is all but gone so I ripped the top off
it's irrelevant
just like that elephant
in the room
ain't that intelligent
but it knows the truth
like a scary skeleton goes "boohoo"
yeah
timid
Yeah
timid
I'm in the middle of the middle of sentence
I'm in the middle of the middle of sentence
"Why the fuck you writing in the corner like a menace?
It's your birthday party and these people are your friends"
friends
