I hear the clock, it's 6am I feel so far away from where I've been Got my eggs, got my pancakes too Got my maple syrup, everything but you I break the yolks and make a smiley face I kinda like it in my brand new place I wipe the spots off of the mirror Don't leave the keys in the door Never put wet towels on the floor anymore 'cause I know, you love me And soon you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you You were meant for me And I was meant for you I called my momma, she was out for a walk Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news More hearts being broken, more people being used I know, you love me And soon you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you You were meant for me And I was meant for you I go about my business, I'm doing fine Besides, what would I say if I had you on the line (I'm just fine) Same old story, not much to say Hearts are broken every day I brush my teeth, I put the cap back on I know you hate it when I leave the light on I pick a book up, and the I turn the sheets down And then take a deep breath and a good look around Put on my pj's and hop into bed I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead I try and tell myself it'll be all right I just shouldn't think anymore tonight 'Cause, I know, that you love me And soon I know you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you You were meant for me And I was meant for you You were meant for me And I was meant for you
It's getting cold and I'm starting to sneeze, I wipe my nose on my sleeve. I've got the sniffles, I'd better drink my tea. Oh do you do you wanna wanna catch a cold with me? I'd catch a cold with you anytime, I ain't just feverish, I ain't just lyin' 'Cause when your nose is running it's a perfect time for kissing and hugging. Oh do you do you wanna wanna catch a cold with me? We'll stay inside where it's nice and warm Tell our bosses, we're caught in a sneezing storm. We'll sniffle and snuggle and watch some more tv. Oh do you do you wanna wanna catch a cold with me? I'd catch a cold with you anytime, I ain't just feverish, I ain't just lyin' 'Cause when your nose is running it's a perfect time for kissing and hugging. Oh do you do you wanna wanna catch a cold with me? Do you do you wanna wanna wanna wanna do you do you wanna do me yes indeed, Oh do you do you wanna wanna catch/have a cold with me?
I went downtown just to see if there was a rocker boy made for me. Tight pants and long brown permed hair. Preferably zebra striped underwear. He's gonna rock my world. Be his rocker girl. Gonna be his rocker girl. I love the way that he gives all the guys shiners 'Cause it sort of matches my blue eyeliner. He's so tough, he's so cute, he's a regular dream. He looks so good in his acid washed denim jeans. He's gonna rock my world Be his rocker girl. He will know all the good movies. He'll know just how to rock it to me. He'll be so romantic and that he'll know every word to Spinal Tap. And I'll be his rocker girl... 2 3 4. If he was Russian, he would be the Kremlin. If he was a rock star, he would be Led Zeppelin. If he was a month he would be oh say May or June. If he was underwear he would be Fruit of the Loom. He's gonna rock my world Be his rocker girl. Gonna be his rocker girl. Gonna be his rocker girl.
Woke up to find I lost my mind Lost heart, lost nerve I lost my favourite word- Emily I'll take my cigarettes I'll give 'em a smoke Oh god My heart feels froze I've lost something it seems I've misplaced my favourite thing- Emily Where does love go If it can't find a home One moment here then gone With no forwarding address Love no longer has a house Or residence in flesh I take the keys I get in the car To out run this man I'd have to go real far My mercy wears lace, And bottles of thieves Which of these took you from me? Emily I face myself But there's a draft inside Parts of me drowned In perpetual tide I wanna call names I wanna throw things But barkin' 'bout forgiveness another round for Emily. Where does love go If it can't find a home One moment here then gone With no forwarding address Love no longer has a house Or residence in flesh I go in the bedroom Turn on the light It's like an empty altar No angel in sight Religion with no temple No place to take my worship to No god for my eyes to see No fruit to lay at the feet of Emily Gone Gone
