Hop Along - Laments lyrics

It's a green-striped sheet Lifted from me i am free Of two very heavy bodies Once we three had slept soundly, I couldn't keep them around Fold the blankets down and Found new sleeping ground Bedsprings squeeking Tires squealing away From one another We all used to be lovers here Bodies laying say they'll stay Just like boxes, stacked The same way Labeled and separated. Hey Go ahead, take the couch I know i don't wanna sit here Next to nobody Go ahead, take the fridge I know i don't want you going hungry Go ahead, take the cat I know you're only gonna be Coming back so Go ahead, take it all, I know you've been wanting to Settle down Has it always been, settling down? One on the left says To the one on the right I could make A very good wife for you One on the right says To the one on the left Let's take this one Step at a time One on the right says To the one on the left you know I need you all the time One on the right says To the one on the left I think i changed my mind And my insides sing A song for the sad ones Who say they'll marry They guess If she's wearin a white dress If he behaves his very best (x3) Yes... Go ahead, take the couch I know i don't wanna sit here Next to nobody Go ahead, take the fridge I know i don't want you going hungry Go ahead, take the cat I know you're only gonna be Coming back so Go ahead, take it all, I know you've been wanting to Settle down Has it always been, settling down? My elastic steel and spring, They will tell you everything, If you lay down, for a minute. The mattress maker's making his, Living by the minute. By the minute. The mattress maker's making his, living... Baby bye bye.
