Waltz, NO. 2 (XO)

First the mic, then a half cigarette

Singing Kathy's clown

That's the man she's married to now

That's the girl that he takes around town

She appears composed

So she is, I suppose

Who can really tell?

She shows no emotion at all

Stares into space like a dead china doll

I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow

Now she's done, and they're calling someone

Such a familiar name

I'm so glad that my memory's remote

'Cause I'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note

Here it is, the revenge to the tune

You're no good, you're no good, you're no good, you're no good

Can't you tell that it's well understood?

I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow

I'm here today, expect it to stay on, and on, and on

I'm tired, I'm tired

Looking out on the substitute scene

Still going strong

XO Mom

It's OK, it's alright, nothing's wrong

Tell Mr. Man with impossible plans

To just leave me alone

In the place where I make no mistakes

In the place where I have what it takes

I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow

I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow

I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow
