Your favorite albums make me swoon
I gotta clean my ears to sing for you
But time and space get in our way
You parted your teeth just to say that
This year has been so hard
And you can't say anything that you don't mean
You thought I'd forget about your birthday
I couldn't do anything quite so mean

I only know how to speak this fast
When I'm covering up the fact
That the truth of the matter is that I don't know
What I'm talking about
So if you wanna be tucked in, you wanna be bathed
I can do those things
And I can always stick around
Not ever being there at all
My incentive to quit cigarettes
Is somewhere in Georgia, I must admit
It wouldn't matter if it were Gеrmany
I still couldn't make my lighter work
It doesn't work as wеll as words that
I mean but I oughta say
Like cliche "I love you" sentences
My house is kinda messy but I'll clean it for you

I only know how to speak this fast
When I'm covering up the fact
That the truth of the matter is that I don't know
What I'm talking about
So if you wanna be tucked in, you wanna be bathed
I can do those things
And I can always stick around
Not ever being there at

All I ever wanted was
Someone who'd inspire love songs
So I could mean them for once
I only know how to speak this fast
When I'm covering up the fact
That the truth of the matter is that I don't know
What I'm talking about
So if you wanna be tucked in, you wanna be bathed
I can do those things
And I can always stick around
Not ever being there at all
