You think you think too much?
Well take a good look in my head.
If I ever shut up long enough,
I might listen to you instead.
But don't be surprised
If it doesn't sink in.
Im somewhere between neurotic and self loathing
In case you stopped listening.
You took something out of me.

How'd you get your job at the coffee house?
Where'd you get those jeans and that vintage blouse?
Im so impressed with your record collection.
Cool vintage drum set and stick selection.
Where do I buy a used leather jacket?
Yours has patches sewn in can I have it?
How much was your liberal arts degree?
Was it worth your cultural currency?
Just bend your knees and bob your head.
Keep looking so jaded.
Pretend like you've heard this song before.
We should take ourselves more seriously.
Give up on having fun and sell out completely.
Im in a band, so I totally get it.
The scene is dead, but at least were in it.
Where do I buy a used leather jacket?
Yours has patches sewn in can I have it?
How much was your liberal arts degree?
Was it worth your cultural currency?
Just bend your knees and bob your head.
Keep looking so jaded.
Pretend like you've heard this song before.
