We shared my umbrella to the lunch room There you microwaved some pumpkin soup It left an orange halo around every tooth And after that I just wasn’t in to you I was trying to make a move You were pashing another dude He was your cousin twice removed And after that I just wasn’t in to you I found out something new this week That what I loved was just skin deep It’s become so obvious and clear You can’t drown in shallow water I wrote you a letter that you never read It turns out that you loved God instead You wouldn’t have sex before you were wed And after that I just wasn’t interested Five foot tall and hair of crimson rosy red When we walked you talked while looking straight ahead I couldn’t understand a single word you said And after that I just wasn’t interested I’m not to blame (I’ve heard it all before) Before I explain (To me you’re nothing) Nothing changed, it never does (I’ll never be your friend) Friends will be enough (Enough to make me cry) I’ve seen underneath (it all) You’re just what I need

I opened up a letter and it took me right back to you A small piece of paper sprayed thick with your sweet perfume You tell me things I don't believe but it's nice of you to try Like if I were any prettier you would probably die, you'd die, you'd die Oh but I cut off my hair and somehow you're still alive So I don't mind if you tell those little white lies I took you to bed and I pressed my prickly face right in to yours We fooled around, you show me yours I'll show you mine like we were four You tell me things I don't believe once I've rocked your fucking world Like if I hadn't come along you would have probably stuck to girls, to girls, to girls Oh but I asked your friends and they counted three other guys So I don't mind if you tell those little white lies

Evidence You've been a bad, bad girl We've got photographs We've got memories Remember now Who you kissed on the lawn Between cigarettes He's never smoked before Perfect in this light The social butterfly You takes us for the night Like a child's lullabye And fall before our eyes And we follow you down Understand All of the hearts you break Turns them brittle like teeth Heart surgeon dentistry Remember now Who you kissed in the car But then never again Now he'll always drive you home They light up for you Isn't it wonderful We feel like kings in the dark of night We turn invisible Under the spectrum of morning light Nothing gets said and so Nothing gets heard 'til you tell it right We turn invisible Nothing to see here No one in sight but you
