how dare the premier ignore my invitations?
the bunch he luncheons with
it's second on my list of things to do
at the top is stopping by
your place of work and acting like
i haven't dreamed of you and i
and marriage in an orange grove
you are the only thing in any room you're ever in
i sat you down and told you how
the truest love that's ever found
you pulled apart my theory
with a weary and disinterested sigh
so yes i guess i'm asking you
to back a horse that's good for glue
but find a man that's truer than
find a man that needs you more than i
and let me listen to you talk about
your dreams and your obsessions
i'll be quiet and confessional
the violets explode inside me
then i'm spinning and i'm diving
like a cloud of starlings
