Lyrics

Will you meet me
Down at the Double T Diner
Off Pulaski highway?
And we'll split milkshakes
And we'll talk about anything
I'll figure out what to say
To a woman
And you like Stephen King
So we both like reading
I guess that's something
Are we going too fast?
And Old Man Charlie
Just won't quit nagging me
And threatening to hit me, but he never does
I'm sorry that I never called you
There's something that I've been attending to
The peeling wallpaper in the bathroom
I can't quite get it to stay down
Cause you're not around
But you're all around
Daddy won't throw away
A single goddamn thing
So I put your bobby pins in my hair
And I wore your dress today
While daddy's gone fishing
The higher the hair, the closer to God
I look just like you
Of course I do
I'm sorry that I never called you
There's something that I've been attending to
The peeling wallpaper in the bathroom
I can't quite get it to stay down
Cause you're not around
But you're all around
