Speedy Ortiz - Shine Theory lyrics

Drop the word I'm Meant to use to Coax the pretty waiter from his restaurant Though he's bad news And a cartoon Of every trope the trophy world's designed to want They say I am a spoiled thing I keep my scar out on my head And always come when I am told to go I leave my neighbors scary notes Which I don't sign while they're at work And I don't want to listen when he tries to talk I stare at his flapping jaw I wanna want him so bad But I don't recognize the charms that he has 'Cause my heart looks in on itself And he better be loved by somebody else Who cares about his face Like a robot Who inflicts one shot Then starts to wheel away despite his protocol I got a hook in The conversation Which I played for meaty bait, though it was watered down They say I am a spoiled mess I never fold up what should fold And shine much better in my house alone The charts predict a brother kid But doctors say I need a sis That I can pawn off to my spiral shell And tie to my cord as well I wanna want her so bad But I don't recognize the charms that she has 'Cause my heart looks in on itself And any friend I make's a stagehand at best To help along the play Fights first and facts last These lads have the a**es for TV But who's taking my picture They better be taking it only of me I wanna want him so bad But I don't recognize the charms that he has I hear he's pretty and swell, but I don't get aroused I wanna want that so bad But I don't recognize the charms that I have 'Cause my heart looks in on itself That's why the beacon's burnt
