Yeah, He's Fucked in the Head, But I Feel Like You'd Go For That

by part two,
i was bored.

by part three,
i wondered why
they kept it in there.

they all just want to know
where you belong.

how many women have you
seen wearing pearls?
on the street today
or in general.

the love of my life
he bites my necklace
while asking,

are these real?
no.

no they were seventy
eight dollars,
they are not real.

the love of my life
is wearing purple cashmere:

you may have seen it first,
but he looks better in it.

do you see the way we
touch each others hands?
the way we get tangled in
each other?

so, got tested today
for adhd.
came out positive.
(pearl earrings)
i feel like i'm losing
my personality,
because i haven't gotten
drunk (pearl earrings).

purple cashmere:
i can't believe you're gone.
yeah but what if i'm hiding
in your closet?
speaking of which.

can't we just get married?
no.
oh so you're going to marry HER?
no.
i can't get married to you.

so is there anyone special
catching your eye?
yeah, he's different though.
oh.
that wasn't a mistake.

are you kidding me?
can't you just kiss me once?
see what this becomes,

purple cashmere you
are taking my attention away
from the improvisation and pearls
on the stage.

so where do you belong then?
not in a book!

can you give me another chance?
i promise next time you bite
my necklace;
