Salutations

Salutations To whom it may concern The litter box has overflowed The frozen dinner burned Oh we're running low on wine, my man Could you please swing by the store My TV's just reality And I can't watch no more There's a shining diamond somewhere Where a kid is strikin' out His dad is in the dugout He's foamin' at the mouth A stomach's turning sour inside of a disappointed scout Yeah he thought he'd found the real deal But now he's got his doubts So it's over before it began But I could nurse you in the triage I could stick you with some pins But it's hopeless These rules make no sense First they say we can't be lovers And now they say we can't be friends Ruminations This medicine don't work Had that same thought ten thousand times It's only gettin' worse Swore off temptation But what if it's what I really wanna do But how could I apologize For telling you the truth There's a burnt out light bulb above my head It's storin' my ideas There's a yearbook on the book shelf That can't explain the years Well I never should have signed it But you know summer's comin' soon When I almost drowned You gave me mouth to mouth Beside your neighbor's pool It was over before it began You could've left me in the water But you made me live again And I'm sorry I can't pay you back I wanna hold you 'til the world dissolves But we just can't get attached
