about

Dependency manifests itself in different ways, like lonely dates stuck in the confines of your own mind...

lyrics

It keeps coming back
Not some pansy schoolgirl mouse
Her eyesight’s pretty bad.
Why is she kissing up to him?

I haven’t run out of Vaseline
It relieves the chafing that happens
Do you mind if I took the time
Noticing the careful fringe?

I can’t keep my eyes open
The feeling’s gotten over me
A pack of cigarettes
Lying on the nightstand
Hope my folks don’t open the door
Tell ‘em I’m into rats
I don’t know myself.

Now my mouse is jammed
And they’re coming up the stairs
They’ll flip when they find out
My standards aren’t what they seem

How can I get a break
When the girls laugh at me
And the boys shift their eyes
And the geeks have their fun?

There’s nothing to it, really.
It’s just another thing that turns me on,
Like some janitor who writes calculus books
And some naïve blonde-headed punk

I can’t really decide if I do this.
It comes over me like Faithful and True,
Blowing the mind of my self-control
Wanting it to put down the rock

Skippy at 33
Like the fifth or sixth band
He’s like the music to my life
As I take it all away

It’s something I learned from a movie once
It’s gotta be finished in some physical example
And down the drain goes my bank account
And my dependency
