the bills i have to pay are twice as much as they were last week, and when i get to work i need to flirt with the possibility of ending it quickly, i was up all by myself for over eight hours, i was drinking whiskey, i never went to sleep so as far as i'm concerned it's still today, and you're still with me, i still got the dog that you wouldn't take away, i still have half your clothes and your bed frame, i still have everything here, telling me everything is gone, i hope you're having fun at your sisters place, going out to giants games with guys that look like me, i'll be right here at the house trying just how to figure out to pay for this damn TV, so it's back to being me, but that's the funny thing is i don't know how to be when i'm me, so please come and get your things, and i will try to shake that title of the murderer of fun, if you promise me you will keep a stiff eye out, when we're hanging out with that gaga wannabe who at least two or three times tried to tear us down, you know what i mean, so please come and get your things

understand me when i tell you please leave, you've got your candy, size you up to your knees, ask your body why do you bleed, from what you told me it seems to fit your needs, so were looking always for a something clever, leaning on some sort of remedy, bit a few times but it's next to never, i've got a short term memory, seems your lucky got your folks and their green, something stuck with me while living beneath my means, i know your story, there's more to you than your scream, the old oak tree protects me from your gleam, i've got suspicions you've got hidden ammunition underneath those mittens your gripping something spinning so fast, bypass, these doubts that don't last, retract your comment about my past, cause they went the same way, they bent the same rules, they choose clues that lead to empty phone booths, i told you, nobody knows the things that hold you, you've made decisions based on certain premonitions given that your mission is kissing pretty girls from way back, rehash, those straws that broke back, find you a place, get off my lap, cause they make the same pay, they went to same schools, they choose clues that lead to empty phone booths

Big Mistake
04:31

ooh she walks like candy down the hallway, ooh she counters quickly, quick to the brain, making a big mistake, making a big mistake, you're making a big mistake, won't you take me gently to the crystal cave or basin bay, won't you bring me something back from when you were away for all those days, ooh she's cracking slowly like a crystal vase, on her birthday, making a big mistake
