hey, ain’t it great
for us to be alive?
I’ve been lying in wait
for you to come outside
I know you don’t know me
but I know a lot about you
you’re the one who knows me
better than I do
when I get back home
I’m gonna put your records on
I’ll play them way too loud
and I’ll sing along
I’ll know all the words
to every song
and I don’t really care
but tonight, you sang one wrong
and I—I can’t keep from talking
I can’t keep from talking ‘bout you
and I just wanted to thank you
thank you for doing what you do
I wanted to tell the world
a little bit about myself
realize my feelings
put them on a shelf
and jump out the window
just so you don’t know what it’s about
‘cause I can’t be there
to help you figure it out
and I—I can’t keep from talking
I can’t keep from talking ‘bout you
and I just wanted to thank you
thank you for doing what you do
