lyrics

Of course I'm embarrassed to be alive
I don't know why you're not
The derelict fire truck next to
The flaming oven mit

We're as stupid as we ever were
But we know a whole lot more
An ordinary day for me
Raise the dead, do the laundry

I guess I should apologise for leaving prematurely
Suppose that that was impolite
Though not a big surprise now, surely
Possibly better than had I stuck around to get drunk and surly
Possibly better than had I stuck around

You don't always get to die
Just precisely when you want to
Soot covered woman kissing her construction hat
The kitchen's empty, the alley's full
I got no place left to go
Punished for integrity
Well what did you expect to be?

I guess I should apologise for leaving prematurely
Suppose that that was impolite
Though not a big surprise now, surely
Possibly better than had I stuck around to get drunk and surly
Possibly better than had I stuck around

I should apologise for leaving you so soon
