Lyrics

I heard that you went out last night
 And you looked beautiful just like a bat
 Beneath the moonlight
 I stayed home took a Vicodin...
 Sometimes it's all that I can do
 When I think about the president
 How did he become the president?
 And I stayed awake for a day or two
 I thought about the world
 Drank gin and watched the news
 And there are some things I'll never understand
 Why the country needs a God
 And a woman needs a man
 And you never write me letters
 And you never sent my sweaters
 So I could stay warm when I was without you
 Without you I don't sleep
 Just dream...
 And I scratch these words into a black notebook
 I wrote your name on top I knew you'd never look
 I tried my best to fight the atmosphere
 To think the happy thoughts
 That leave the phone lines clear
 I see Arizona stars from here
 But Peter Pan is miles away
 And you never write me letters
 And you never sent my sweaters
 So I could stay warm when I was without you
 Without you I don't have...
 A place that's safe from all the monsters
 That hide in my head and sing me to sleep (sleep)
 This is the last straw...
 This is the last straw she said
 And I won't wait for you forever
 While you run around like JFK
 You watched that poor girl
 Waste the best years of her life
 And I'll be damned if I am going out
 I will not go out that way!
 And you never write me letters
 And you never sent my sweaters
 So you could stay warm when I was gone
 Without you I don't have...
 A place that's safe from all the monsters
 That hide in my head and keep me 'til dawn
 And I think this is the last straw.
