Get Warmer

(album: Get Warmer - 2007)

It was fifty degrees in December
And the heat in my house is always broke
So it feels about twenty-five colder
And I can't feel my fingers and toes

I miss the G train with a passion
That used to be reserved for hate

And I'm getting too carried away
With the bullshit of leaving today
I know that I'm getting bored
Real bored of myself
Cause I'm getting too carried away
With the bullshit of leaving today
I know that I'm getting bored
Real bored of myself

It was three o' clock with friends in Boston
And I'm digging the winter's first snow
Now it's midnight, I'm drinking Blue Ribbons
And I'm already sick of the cold

The bartender skipped my Tom Waits song
It's Wham! now, I wanna "go go"

Cause I'm getting too carried away
With the bullshit of leaving today
I know that I'm getting bored
Real bored of myself
Cause I'm getting too carried away
With the bullshit of leaving today
I know that I'm getting bored
Real bored of myself

Let's live like elephants, stomping on sycophants
Paws in a polygraph
Not favor loneliness over companionship
Let's not be jealous

Let's give the pretentious a cure
And not just a name

Cause I'm getting too carried away
With the bullshit of leaving today
I'm really more than just
Quite a bit bored with myself
Cause I'm getting too carried away
With the bullshit of leaving today
I didn't wanna be
This damn unsure of myself

But it never seems to get warmer
No matter how far south you go
It'll get too hot in the summer
And the sweat'll soak right through your clothes

And you'll feel self-conscious and awkward
And the feeling stays with you all day
Until you go and put on a new t-shirt
And throw that old one away
