triptych
hello my love
you've been waiting here for me
while i blew you off for my two other girls
but you know i've been in deep deep shit
since our tricky little triptych
since our tricky little triptych
and this triptych that i've assembled
out of insecure jewish girls
you're my third favorite person that i almost love
like that could be good enough
like that could be good enough
don't you know you've got a role to play?
they're the rhythm you're the lead
so maybe you're not with me all the time
but you've got a place in my mind
but you've got a place in my mind
and i said
am i here just so your sexuality's ok
you were already locked in an embrace
and i stare into your eyes as i kiss your friend
and i'm never gonna get a chance like this again
and i'm never gonna get a chance like this again
---
i want the two of you here together
you ought to lose your flower with someone you love
its all here in this pastiche of anaïs nin
with a little kundera thrown in
with a little kundera thrown in
We want our fantasies to be beautiful, not realistic
with a drunken jilted lover wandering around outside
and why wont she answer her goddamn phone
why did shannon leave her alone
why did shannon leave her alone
and you said
you flutter when you see a boy with hair like mine
but you can only double book a girl so many times
you erase me from your phone cause its gotta end
and you never want to hear from me again
and you never want to hear from me again
---
(and i don't care, and i don't care)
you're the strangest girl i've ever met
.
you're a summer fling i should forget
.
and i drown my sorrows in alligator meat
and i think of you when i pass linnean st.
and i read the posts you left on my facebook wall
and i keep your number hidden in my recent calls
and i wonder if thats me in your song i heard
and i worry that its not but you never learned
