lyrics

I came, I saw, I wondered
Is it worth it?
I don’t know

No, no, no
Not even for one damned night
Privileged and scattered and useless
What luxury my birthright
I don’t want to leave

No, but even so
There’s an alluring nuisance
Is it fiction that’s dragging me out?
Pulling at my tail and congesting my snout
Lies, all lies
I read about them all the time

I came, I saw, I wondered
It made me dizzy
I fell, I flailed, I slumbered
She said she missed me
But do I even know her?

This roof has got a real steep pitch
I know you’ve seen me panting at my neighbor’s window
Maybe I was blowing them a kiss
But I have to say it’s intriguing that someone might want to know
