Title: Song for British
Post by: crow on January 20, 2014, 07:55:53 PM
Song for British

[Verse]
Let me take a second--
How we ended up this way?
And am I quite yet ready to talk?

I should recondition the terms of our arrangement,
But it's so easy just to blame it on the dog.

And I am stepping lightly
As a cat wearing skates
At a rocking chair convention
In the hall upstairs, I guess.

No matter how it weighs out,
There's no means of escape,
So I sat down, and I wrote you this song.

And it goes like this:

[Chorus]
Da-da da-da da-da
Doo doo doo-wa
Da da da da da dah
Do-dee-wah

Doo-doo doo-doo doo-oooo doo-doo--
Wait, what's that you say?
Now you're bi-curious?
My mother-fucking god . . .

[Verse]
It'll be strange at Christmas--
We used to go pick out a tree,
Then we'd come home,
And you'd paint it on the wall.

At least, we could've done that if
We made the memory,
But our banks were just
Complete-a-lee-dee-dee robbed.

Threw me on the stoop,
And I got licked up by the cat,
Oh, Jesus!
Where did this all go so wrong?! Oh,

Bring me my oxygen! I said I needed space
To breathe--oh. Ha ha ha ha.

You could fry an egg in my brain pan
And I'd keep on making smilie with this face

[Chorus]
And going on . . .
Doo doo doo-wa
Da da da da da dah
Do-dee-wah

Doo-doo doo-doo doo-oooo doo-doo--
What's it today?
Vegetarian?
Oh, everything is raw.

[Bridge]
I needed a pick me up,
So I picked you out--
Can't tell me I was wrong . . .
And even if you did,
It wouldn't be any less true
Than if I only kinda sang it in a song . .  .

That goes like this:

[Chorus]
Da-da da-da da-da
Doo doo doo-wa
Da da da da da dah
Do-dee-wah

What do you mean, "really?"?
I love you
Like it says it in the card.

That's the day a comma took my baby away:
It was missing where it needed to belong.

And it goes like this.

Da-da da-da da-da
Doo doo doo-wa
Da da da da da dah
Do-dee-wah

Doo-doo doo-doo doo-oooo doo-doo wa . . .
