Espirit De L'Escalier Songtext

von Mess Up the Mess

I can't believe you just said
That about the shape of my head
And followed up with that quip
About the size of my hips
And then when I turend around
You made that backing up sound
And while you were going beep beep
I lost all power of speech

Five minutes back I had nothing to say
Now my head's filled up with quick comebacks
The kind that make all the kids go SNAP
Damn that Esprit de l'Escalier

Don't you know it's uncouth
To bring up my shovel tooth
Does the whole world have to know
That I'm slightely pigeon-toed
Oh hey now, come on
Let's not bring up my mom
So is all this really about
'Cause I said no when you asked me out?

Honestly, I am losing my patience
You remind me of summer vacations
Why? well since you asked
You've absolutely no class
Honestly, I am losing my patience
You remind me of summer vacations
Why? well since you've asked
You've got absolutely no class

I can't believe you just said
That about the shape of my head
And followed up with that quip
About the size of my hips
And then when I turned around
You made that backing up sound
While you were going beep beep
BEEP BEEP!
I lost all power of speech

Five minutes back I had nothing to say
Now my head's filled up with quick comebacks
The kind that make all the kids go SNAP
Damn that Esprit de l'Escalier
