Things Are Really Weird

You, Me, And Everyone We Know Things Are Really Weird Lyrics
1.There Was A Thump, Then Another

There was a thump, then another*
That came quicker than the others
And yet, try as I may,
They kept speeding up that way
I was the same two consonants
I just wanted u, all vowels
There was some twisting and some turning
Like Sam Cooke dancing on my bowels

What makes you hot like an oven
Sweat like a barrel
Of a shotgun pointed at you
Held by the devil

I wouldn't call it love
But my heart sure is pumping blood
It isn't pretty but it works
No it's not sharp but it still hurts
I wouldn't call it love
But my heart sure is pumping blood
It isn't pretty but it works
No it's not sharp but it still hurts

Sway to the right
Snake under charm, I couldn't fight
Without thought she took my hand
It seems she's already made plans
Now my feet keep shifting nervously
Stripping shine right off the floor
And my sweat glands keep shouting
We can't take it any more

What makes you hot like an oven
Sweat like a barrel
Of a shotgun pointed at you
Held by the devil

I wouldn't call it love
But my heart sure is pumping blood
It isn't pretty but it works
No it's not sharp but it still hurts
I wouldn't call it love
But my heart sure is pumping blood
It isn't pretty but it works
No it's not sharp but it still hurts

What makes you hot like an oven
Sweat like a barrel
Of a shotgun pointed at you
Held by the devil

I wouldn't call it love
But my heart sure is pumping blood
It isn't pretty but it works
No it's not sharp but it still hurts
I wouldn't call it love
But my heart sure is pumping blood
It isn't pretty but it works
No it's not sharp but it still hurts

I was the same two consonants


2.Sad Bastard Music

This sweater doesn't quite smell*
Nice the way it used to
My teeth aren't nearly as white
My blue eyes half as bright
My taste for liquor ain't the same
I say that's a good thing
Beneath this crooked little grin
The ice is getting thin
But our times are never really thick
Simple arithmetic
It's not a mental trick I plan to learn
Too good at giving up,
Why bother covering a candle due to snuff?
Simple arithmetic
It's not a mental trick I plan to learn
I've learned to live without.
I'm barely flickering, just put me out.


3.Things Are Really Weird Right Now

Things are really weird right now*
It seems all their dreams came true
Only they're home studying the day away
Or working hard for the FDA
Now you might wonder where that leaves me
I'm not complaining, just beginning to see.
I never really learned just how to aspire
Mostly self-deprecate, detaching the tire.
I was 15 looking for God,
Then I was 18 praying to lay.
Now I'm 26 with a head full of hair,
I'll be losing any day.
I pull the dirt in around me,
I just pull the dirt all around.
I've been too busy kicking up dust
I'm just sifting through it now.
I pull the dirt in around me,
I just pull the dirt all around.
At least I'm choking on something real this time
At least I'm finally learning how.
Things are really weird right now
I know I haven't called in weeks.
Between the barely there days
And 'You know I can't stays'
I just don't know what to say.
The words right now are really hard to find
I'm running out of terms to use
My mind's either weary of the things I'll say
Or it's had enough of this self-abuse.
I pull the dirt in around me,
I just pull the dirt all around.
I've been too busy kicking up dust
I'm just sifting through it now.
I pull the dirt in around the eye
Just pull the dirt all around
At least I'm choking on something real this time
At least I'm finally learning how.
I was 15 looking for God,
Then I was 18 praying to lay.
Now I'm 26 with a head full of hair,
I'll be losing any day.
I was 15 looking for God,
Then I was 18 praying to lay.
Now I'm 26 with a head full of hair,
I'll be losing any day.
Just pull the dirt all around
I've been too busy kicking up dust
I'm just sifting through it now.
I pull the dirt in around me,
I just pull the dirt all around.
At least I'm choking on something real this time
At least I'm finally learning how.
Things are really weird right now.
Things are really weird right now.
Things are really weird right now.
Things are really weird right now.
Things are really weird right now.
Things are really weird right now.
