[Verse 1] All I ever wanted to be Was a woolly muffler on your naked neck Doublewrap me when its cold But you pulled a little tight just now And Im afraid I feel a choke hold ccccoming on Yeah, Im afraid I feel a choke hold coming on [Verse 2] All I ever thought we might come to was second dates And flirting eyebrows Or maybe even psychic friends And we could share a secret language And almost definitely make more of it than it was But everyone around us would know Everyone watching would know [Verse 3] This is not a walk with walking wounded Heres the ball, heres the pole Now wheres the tether, wheres the tether? Hands can grow together If youre not careful or grateful or whatever And I never much cared much too much to begin with [Verse 4] I will not take your possibilities under my care I will not see you on the bus You want me to hold your hand Its a courtship I cant stand And here I thought you were crying Uh, because you were happy But no No, no, no, no, no, no, no [Verse 5] Friends will turn against you People disappoint you every time So if youve got greatness in you Would you do us all a favor And keep it to yourself? Keep it, keep it to yourself [Verse 6] A labored expat fantasy Quit your job and move away with me Oh, what bliss it would be To pretend we never met [Outro] Im elated now Im elated now Im elated now Im elated now Im elated now Im elated now
