lyrics
pam jumps off the roof
into a swimming pool
as far as I’m concerned i’m john rambo until noon, yeah
punches up my jokes
backflips into bed
as far as I’m concerned I’m indebted to her whim
lights up every room
with radon and perfume
adorned with sleight of hand and the theme from xanadu
my god, not now
i was a hockey dad
crushed dreams and coors light
i was a sycophant
i was a concubine
once timeless in the 90s
now listless in a three piece
i was at center field
let’s not get into that
pam claws at the door
here to take my job
“why don’t you love me enough to hit me? why don’t you love me enough to sob?”
oh christ, enough
i was a hockey dad
crushed dreams and coors light
i was a diplomat
i was a concubine
once timeless in the 90s
now listless in a three piece
i was at center field
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
I was at citifield
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
i was at center field
let’s not get into that
calling
your father
for money
to grovel
to comment
to carpool
to side eye
to sinew
a coffin
a climax
a payment
a complex
a toothache
a defense
a road rage
a retake, a reflex
into a swimming pool
as far as I’m concerned i’m john rambo until noon, yeah
punches up my jokes
backflips into bed
as far as I’m concerned I’m indebted to her whim
lights up every room
with radon and perfume
adorned with sleight of hand and the theme from xanadu
my god, not now
i was a hockey dad
crushed dreams and coors light
i was a sycophant
i was a concubine
once timeless in the 90s
now listless in a three piece
i was at center field
let’s not get into that
pam claws at the door
here to take my job
“why don’t you love me enough to hit me? why don’t you love me enough to sob?”
oh christ, enough
i was a hockey dad
crushed dreams and coors light
i was a diplomat
i was a concubine
once timeless in the 90s
now listless in a three piece
i was at center field
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
I was at citifield
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
let’s not get into that
i was at center field
let’s not get into that
calling
your father
for money
to grovel
