You live on the other side of town
So I bike past your best friend's house instead
When I did the laundry, I found your socks
But the store is just a few blocks ahead

On the morning after New Year's Eve
And you're sitting there judging me
While your head is pounding and full of regrets
And finally set

We're laughing loudly and taking up space
And I'm writing about you in short stories
Remember when we swore to behave
Then we broke all the rules with no sorry

And we crashed on your couch
Watched Curious George

This isn't about you but the bum in the woods
Three months ago when we knew where we stood for sure
Just for twenty minutes, it was so clear
Before I tuned you to what I wanted to hear, before, before

I climbed up the side ladder and fed myself a platter of cake I ate
Oh I feasted and you seated someone else in the back of your fourth generation Honda Civic
No I'm so sick of it now I'll rush to your bathroom and puke all on your walls, run loudly down your halls
Until your parents wake up and then we'll laugh and make up
Who am I kidding? Let's go back to your place, lay

On your couch
Watch Curious George
On your watch, couch
Curious
Curious George
