Good Morning Tucson

Lyrics

It's still so dark because it's still so early and the
 Chipper little girlie at the front desk doesn't mind at all
 These phony living rooms and fake plants are killing me
 This bad coffee's filling me with equal parts, joy and rage
 Put my makeup on and crack in half
 I choke back a laugh
 Find the camera with the red light
 Good morning Tucson
 The lights come on, and so I smile wide and say
 "Good morning Tucson"
 I throw to you before I throw the rest away
 When I was coming up, I got the donuts, which means
 I got the donuts that I wanted
 There was no young punk to steal my jelly glazed
 And I am still sort of amazed that you can be born in the '90s
 When I don't like what they talk about
 I take the earpiece out
 But they just cue me through the window
 Good morning Tucson
 The lights come on, and so I smile wide and say
 "Good morning Tucson"
 I throw to you before I throw the rest away
 While they do the weather, I pretend I'm writing something
 But I'm really far away, really far away
 I keep my smile warm in case they turn the camera on
 'Cause now, I have something to say, I have something to say
 The camera's melting, but I just keep going, it's been a
 Pleasure knowing you, I wish you all the best of luck
 When the prompter dies, I'm comfortable winging and I'm
 Practically singing it, the song that tears the world apart
 Through the smoke beyond my parking space
 I see my giant face
 On the billboard by the highway
 Good morning Tucson
 The lights come on, and so I smile wide and say
 "Good morning Tucson"
 I throw to you before I throw the rest away
