Amanda Palmer - Straight lyrics
[Amanda Palmer - Straight lyrics]
There is a boy in a band who is friends
With my French teacher's stepson sebastian
A very nice gentleman
He seems to know me but i can't remember him
Good god forgive me i'm out of my element
And i can't seem to keep them all straight
I've forgotten which people i like
And which people i hate
And i'm waiting for someone to
Shake me and say hey bitch
Your wish is my command just smile and nod
We'll under- standing in front of the sink
I'm pretending to wink at pretend paparazzi
Who hide in the chemicals
From every locket behind every curtain
Their lenses ensure that I
Look lost in thought yet approachable
But i can't seem to keep them all straight
I've forgotten which ones i should skip
And which ones i should take
And i'm waiting for someone to
Shake me and say hey bitch
Don't quit you're almost dead
Don't give up now
Make friends instead of going out go home
Instead of getting dressed go back to bed
There is a voice on the phone
Who's convinced i'm alone
And I've called because I'm greedy
And looking for sympathy
He seems to like me but i can't relate
I would like to get closer
But christ all the time it takes
And i can't seem to keep myself straight
I've forgotten which habit's to hide
And which habit's to fake
And i'm waiting for someone to
Shake me and say hey bitch
Nice tit's you're broke but then
You're rich in love you're great in bed
You'll see the world you'll knock 'em dead
And all the thick books that you've read
Will count for nothing in the end
With my French teacher's stepson sebastian
A very nice gentleman
He seems to know me but i can't remember him
Good god forgive me i'm out of my element
And i can't seem to keep them all straight
I've forgotten which people i like
And which people i hate
And i'm waiting for someone to
Shake me and say hey bitch
Your wish is my command just smile and nod
We'll under- standing in front of the sink
I'm pretending to wink at pretend paparazzi
Who hide in the chemicals
From every locket behind every curtain
Their lenses ensure that I
Look lost in thought yet approachable
But i can't seem to keep them all straight
I've forgotten which ones i should skip
And which ones i should take
And i'm waiting for someone to
Shake me and say hey bitch
Don't quit you're almost dead
Don't give up now
Make friends instead of going out go home
Instead of getting dressed go back to bed
There is a voice on the phone
Who's convinced i'm alone
And I've called because I'm greedy
And looking for sympathy
He seems to like me but i can't relate
I would like to get closer
But christ all the time it takes
And i can't seem to keep myself straight
I've forgotten which habit's to hide
And which habit's to fake
And i'm waiting for someone to

You're rich in love you're great in bed
You'll see the world you'll knock 'em dead
And all the thick books that you've read
