so i stay six feet away from you at all times, until you don’t know who i am
and i match your movements, match each little toe tap, and stand off to the side
reflecting you in silence

you wanna play games, change your number and burn your outfit
who should i say gains when you lose your shit?

kill your attitude, girl
you know i’m mad at you still, and i know you’re mad at me
but when your batteries die, don’t come untied

it’s been a year since you were here i hope you’ve had fun, with your arms across your chest
and i write you letters write but you don’t read them
you throw them in the garbage 

you wanna play games, scrap the doormat and leave a landmine
who should i say gains when you lose your mind?

(chorus)

but when your batteries drain, don’t be a pain

(instrumental) 

you wanna play games…

(chorus)


Kill Your Attitude

climb in my time machine, i’ve been mean, and now i’m sorry
so would you mind if we just skip to when we’re friends again?

what do i have to say? to get you to see it my way?

‘cause all i want is you (come back, my friend)
and all i wanna do (is be your friend)

future-you calls to make plans to see bands with me but 
now-you is mad at me all the way ’til yesterday

it’s been a long year since we had a chat
it’s gonna be a few more before you smile back
in the meantime, we could be fine, just buckle up and close that hatch

(chorus)

2021 i’ve said and i’ve done what any good friend would have
2022 i’ve had it i’m through i’m quitting on you i’m turning my back 
2023 you’re looking at me but you really can’t see i’m there
2024 i don’t care about the score i can’t take it anymore and i don’t care

(chorus)

what do i have to do to laugh with you again?

Time Machine

i’m leaving you this tuesday, before i lose a lung
we can’t break up halfway, so light the fuse and run
i’m leaving you this ashtray, to put beside the desk           
‘cause we can’t break up halfway, and i am bored to death

of you striking a match and cupping your hands
so i’m getting the patch, and making a plan
well yeah but i could stand

one last cigarette before i quit
one last look at it
‘cause we were good at it
one last cigarette before i quit
one drag, it’s so good but i shouldn’t have

stayed with you for so long, ‘cause now i can’t say no
the smoke i used to float on, brought me down so low, so while you’re 

striking a match and cupping your hands
i’ll be getting the patch, and making a better plan
but what is better than

(chorus)

made my bed and now i gotta rise and shine
to lie in it with you would be unkind                                
‘cause we both know, that i gotta go
but i got a minute though

(chorus)

cancer emphysema heart disease
whoever thought it’d be so hard to part with these?



Last Cigarette

hats off to you, i’ll never know how you make that rabbit crawl out your shoe
showtime tonight, so many men crowd around you, so crowded i can’t get through

but when your bag of tricks runs out, will they still love you when they doubt?
remember readymade gags come with a price tag
and i’m concerned about your health the way you prostitute yourself
remember readymade gags have price tags

backstage the ace you’re tucking inside of your sleeve is more interesting than me
you look away whenever i say i miss you, you shuffle the deck and leave

(chorus)

i remember the day we met in the park, you sawed my body in half
you were drunk on me and high on your self, you made me laugh and laugh

(chorus) 

Bag Of Tricks

“i had a good night,” you say to your porch light
my thumb is pinned to your chin and your half-grin is reeling me in

like the wheels of an airplane an inch from the runway
and your eyes open wide like a riptide, i kiss you goodbye

and it feels so right, yeah it feels so right, right when it rains

i wanna be soaking wet in somerset this summer let’s go dance in the storm
if lightning strikes i’m ready for it, see my shoes already off?  shampoo’s already frothed and i’m warm
the least i’ll do is race you down the windowpane, ‘cause it feels right when it rains

making my way home through layers of gray foam
like it’s halloween or a dream, there’s enough steam, to straighten my jeans	

on the sparkling sidewalk
the crickets and i talk
they advise me the sky’s gonna baptize whoever is outside 

but it feels so right, yeah it feels so right, right when it rains

(chorus)

good, good people and bad weather go together
love is a landslide, i’m falling i can’t hide, come splash in the mud 

(chorus)
