lyrics

My girlfriend is growing tired of my Craig Finn impersonation
I hope she never leaves me
I don't even mind that she likes Ronald Reagan

In the midwest fall
in a shopping mall
in a bathroom stall
at Elsewhere

The beats were wild
the kids were high
I sat there lifeless
trying not to cry

Oh no! I feel it coming over me again
the same sense of nothing from then
Oh no! I feel it coming over me again
I buy new shoes, I buy Adidas track suits
I buy airsoft guns and expensive brunch at Snooze
I'll purchase the goddamn globe if I have to

Now it's happy hour up in New York and I'm wondering if she finished The Staircase
Back home I can't seem to throw away her colored socks and her Colgate toothpaste

Swimming pool
Private schools
the angry, solitary rip of the Juul
dumb guitars
xanny bars
spilling dip cups in my car

Oh no! I feel it coming over me again
the same sense of nothing from then
Oh no! I feel it coming over me again
I buy new shoes, I buy Adidas track suits
I buy airsoft guns and expensive brunch at Snooze
I'll purchase the goddamn globe if I have to
