Vic Chesnutt - See You Around lyrics

I'm sorry for my lack of communication
But as I'm staring out
This fifth-floor window
It seems like the least amount
Of communication the better
Oh, well what am I supposed to say
"There's a bloody effigy on my wall
And the complimentary carnation
Is falling apart"
And I ain't got time for the niceties
Or rather I was never
Never fond of the niceties

I will see you around i will see you around
See you around see you around

Well I must admit I'm
Flattered by your consecration
It's a mind-numbing spine chilling
But never-the less heartwarming gesture
But as you make your advances so clumsily
I'll save us both the hassle and leave
And hang out all night
In the familiar fluorescent light
Of Dunkin' Donuts
'cause I ain't got time for the niceties
Or rather I was never
Never fond of the niceties

I will see you around see you around
See you around see you around

Well, how are you with issues
Lately, you've been a half-assed activist
You've been seen sashaying around
The picket line wearing scarcely any sign
Oh, but always vocal in love and strife
And the politics of your all-important life
Well, I'm sorry but your routine is
Coming off a bit ragged
And I ain't got time for the niceties
Or rather I was never
Never fond of the niceties

I will see you around i'll see you around
See you around

I'll see you around
