Your Girlfriend
lyrics
Your life's like a book on back of the shelf
There is nothing erotic about it, you are what you are
She heard you talk on the phone
"Every single word you said," she said
Though nothing of note happened
You felt it go past your head and still wouldn't let it die
Don't you dare ever think that you've got nothing you could lose
'Cuz your girlfriend's too good for you
And she's got half her foot through the door
I could do the bare minimum and it would still be better than being with you
How are you so gullible? So ignorant and unlovable
She's made up her mind five years ago, there's nothing you can do
You just refused to go half the mile she does and we both know that your world view doesn't hold up
Your recollections may keep this faux love alive but it will end whether you like it or not
Don't you dare ever think that you've got nothing you could lose
'Cuz your girlfriend's too good for you
And she's got half her foot through the door
I could do the bare minimum and it would still be better than being with you
So, don't you dare ever think that you've got nothing you could lose
'Cuz your girlfriend's too good for you
And she's got half her foot through the door
You'd ought to give more of a shit
Though tonight you still share the bed, by the next day
She'll be long gone and it'll forever feel like
You lost the final piece of puzzle and it'll feel horrible
And you'll feel like you gotta go and maybe it's time to go
Yeah, maybe it's time to go
There is nothing erotic about it, you are what you are
She heard you talk on the phone
"Every single word you said," she said
Though nothing of note happened
You felt it go past your head and still wouldn't let it die
Don't you dare ever think that you've got nothing you could lose
'Cuz your girlfriend's too good for you
And she's got half her foot through the door
I could do the bare minimum and it would still be better than being with you
How are you so gullible? So ignorant and unlovable
She's made up her mind five years ago, there's nothing you can do
You just refused to go half the mile she does and we both know that your world view doesn't hold up
Your recollections may keep this faux love alive but it will end whether you like it or not
Don't you dare ever think that you've got nothing you could lose
'Cuz your girlfriend's too good for you
And she's got half her foot through the door
I could do the bare minimum and it would still be better than being with you
So, don't you dare ever think that you've got nothing you could lose
'Cuz your girlfriend's too good for you
And she's got half her foot through the door
You'd ought to give more of a shit
Though tonight you still share the bed, by the next day
She'll be long gone and it'll forever feel like
You lost the final piece of puzzle and it'll feel horrible
And you'll feel like you gotta go and maybe it's time to go
Yeah, maybe it's time to go
