lyrics

I’ll never believe she intended to leave me this way

Messages left on the phone, she sounds so alone and I wait

Still hear her voice carry up through the noise saying hey

How ya doing tonight? Wasn’t Rafa a sight? Then we’d pray...

For the man on the moon and hard drinks before noon and falling asleep at the bar

And everyone lies, our political ties got no business in our family here

Blow out the candles

Blow out the candles

I know it ain’t right but

I’m wasted considering

Falling apart at the seems

Pull up a chair brush the glitter in your hair and let’s sing

To Freddie and Queen and Ian and Mott and the kinks

To A charming odd smile and a fabulous style

I cannot begin to list out all the things I miss

I know it’s insane but you must entertain the idea

Humanity calls and the curtains will fall with our tears
