lyrics

Let me tell you what,
she looks just like my mother.
And let me tell you what,
is it weird that doesn’t scare me?

And if we can play the part,
we can see the end even before the start.

We started staying in,
I started sleeping over.
We wanted to feel close,
we battened down the hatches.

And if we can play the part
we can see the end even before the start.
We had the best sex of all our friends,
even if we never talk to them

Why, why do we sleep so much?
‘Cause if we go out, talk with our friends,
We might see that we’re wrong,
and we can’t be wrong, like a song,
with a chorus that bores us at first
but as soon as you learn
it’s determined,
It’s determined.

We finally emerge
later in the summer.
She says she’s going out,
be back in time for supper.

And if I can hold her hand,
all of the world will then understand.
We’ll take it out of the neighborhood
showing everyone that we know it’s good.
