My Apartment's Very Clean Without You Songtext

von Garfunkel and Oates

I work 'til my kitchen is spotless
In hopes that my mind will be thoughtless
I put everything in it's rightful place, it's true
My apartment's very clean without you

Got an extra key to my door now
Your underwear's not on my floor now
No more Hendrix or beer or cigarette butts, it's true
My apartment's very clean without you

There are children starving in Africa
Genocide in Darfur
But the thing that really makes me sad
Is your toothbrush is not in my drawer
Yes, it's true
My apartment's very clean without you

I push away the mess with my mop and broom
No sound of sports from the other room
I found 'The Last Boy Scout' and threw it away, it's true
My apartment's very clean without you

I can stay up all hours and write now
No snoring keeping me up at night now
No alarm to wake me at 6 AM, it's true
But my new bed feels too big without you

The economy's crumbling around us
And the whole world's getting too hot
But the thing that really makes me sad
Is the pair of socks you forgot
Yes, it's true
My apartment's way too clean without you

My couch is just a couch
My room is just a room
My home is just a house
Without you
