|
All alone by the table of food in my wrinkled suit and my borrowed tie |
|
Only thinking of something to say in the moment after the girl goes by |
|
Everyone else is having fun or else pretending to |
|
I eat another crudite |
|
I quit, I'm done |
|
Cause I don't think it's gonna turn out okay |
|
It's no fair, it's no fun |
|
If every time it's gonna end the same way: |
|
Me: zero, Big bad world: one |
|
At the office we're all having cake cause it's someone's birthday, I don't know who |
|
Get my plate and I'm scanning the room and the only seat is right next to you |
|
I get the nod, the tiny smile that doesn't come with teeth |
|
Maybe you don't know who I am |
|
I quit, I'm done |
|
Cause I don't think 's gonna turn out okay |
|
It's no fair, it's no fun |
|
If every time it's gonna end the same way: |
|
Me: zero, Big bad world: one |
|
Staying in side, lying in bed |
|
Noticing something that's not there |
|
Follow my heart, follow my head |
|
I'll follow anything that might get me somewhere |
|
Catch her eye when she's pouring my coffee and search my head for an opening line |
|
But I see by the look on her face if I keep my mouth shut I'll save some time |
|
What if the best that I can be just isn't good enough? |
|
Isn't it better not to know? |
|
I quit, I'm done |
|
Cause I don't think it's gonna turn out okay |
|
It's no fair, it's no fun |
|
If every time it's gonna end the same way: |
|
Me: zero, Big bad world: one |
