Laments of a Mattress (feat. Frances Quinlan)

作曲 : Christine Frances Quinlan

Hehmm, what? **** you, I'm walking out, it's my apartment

Green striped sheets lifted from me

I am free of two very heavy bodies

Once we three had slept soundly

But I couldn't keep them around

Fold the blankets down

And found new sleeping ground

Bed springs squeaking

Tires squealing away from one another

We all used to be lovers here

Bodies playing

Stay they'll

Stay like their boxes stacked

Stay labeled and separated

Go ahead take the couch

I know I don't want to sit next to nobody

Go ahead take the fridge and all

I don't want you going hungry

Go ahead take the cat

I know you're only gonna be coming back

Go ahead take it all

I know how you've wanting to settle down down down

Has it always been settling down? down down

The one on the left says to the on the right

I could make a very good wife for you

The one on the right to the one on the left

Let's take this one step at a time

One on the the right says to the one on the left

You know I need you all the time I ah I

The one on the left says to the one on the right

I think I've changed my mind

I can't help but think

My insides have to sing

Now the weight gets the better of me

And my insides have to sing

Song for the sad ones

Who say they'll marry they guess

She's wearing a white dress if he behaves his very best

Song for the sad ones

Who say they'll marry they guess

She's wearing a white dress if he behaves his very best

Song for the sad ones

Who say they'll marry they guess

She's wearing a white dress if he behaves his very best

Song for the sad ones

Who say they'll marry they guess

She's wearing a white dress if he behaves his very best

Yes, yes, yes...

Go ahead take the couch

I know I don't want to sit next to nobody

Go ahead take the fridge and all

I don't want you going hungry

Go ahead take the cat

I know you're coming back so

Go ahead take it all

I know how you've been

You've been wanting to all this time

To settle down all

Has it always been settling down? down down

My elastic, steel and spring

They will tell you everything

If you lay down

For a minute

Oh my elastic, steel and spring

They will tell you everything

If you lay down

For a minute

The mattress maker's making his living by the minute, by the minute

The mattress maker's making his living by the minute, by the minute

The mattress maker's making his living by the minute, by the minute

The mattress maker's making his living by the minute, by the minute

So, go ahead
