Better Go Songtext

von Mal Blum

Drunk dial, then
I wish that you would
It's such a pretty house,
In a pretty yard, in a pretty neighborhood
Godammit, I wish that it were
A metaphor for a feeling or,
The hard cover of your new memoir

Oh my god, look at all the stuff you've got
Does it make your loneliness more bearable?

You look a lot like me
Remiss the oft anxiety
Sated, and I wish that I was

Better go without me
‘cause I don't know the thing to say
It's all demand until they need where your body stands
Guess I ain't using my body anyway

Anyway, so tired and I wish that I was
Anyone in another state in another place in another neighborhood
Goddamnit, who's taking me home?
Goddamnit, I wish that you could
(no no, no)

Oh my god, you got everything you want
Even a bloodless diamond rock,
Who would have thought?
You look a lot like you
Maybe I also do
If the house is glass, then I am not but

Better go without me
‘cause I don't know the thing to say
It's all demand until they need where your body stands
Guess I ain't using my body anyway

Anyway
One by fire and one by plague
Don't think that I'll see you again
But I don't mind it as I once did
I push the door ‘cause it opens in
All my tension taut and inhabited
Oh my god, another brownstone city block
"pull out the playground, build a lot if they're smart"
You say
‘cause you've got to live
So I cared and you never did

Hope your computer keeps you warm where I could not
Better go, better go, better go without me
‘cause I don't, I don't, I don't know the thing to say
It's all demand until they need where your body stands
Guess I ain't using my body anyway
Guess I ain't using my body anyway
