lyrics

If you ever wonder what makes me so cool -- my cynical, urbane demeanor -- I got it out in Crosswicks strawberry picking with my cordless vacuum cleaner. So why do want to go and hide that credit card bill and your membership to Equinox? Crunch all you want but if you want to move a muscle, you'd better get down to the loading docks. You got me. That's all you ever wanted. So why'd you want to be someone else?

What's that paste you got on your face? I thought your vision was getting clearer. I'm tired of always playing second banana, baby, to your little pocket mirror. Well, that's no way to say goodbye to misinterpretation. I'm gonna lose my faith in mankind. Everything sucks when you remember it correctly. Better pour another glass of wine. It can't slow down, it won't slow down. Stop the car atop the divider by the chemical refinery and dance beneath the flame.

Imagine the dismay in my chest of drawers when you said you loved me for my smarts! I admit that I expected something more romantic when you put a quarter in the go-carts. We were young and tough on the mean streets of Beach Haven. We could have been rock and roll kings! I never should have swiped my motorcycle jacket for that copy of "The Lord Of The Rings".
