Strange Reunions

(album: Odd Blood - 2010)

Don't ask me for any favors
And I won't ask how you do it
Leave me alone now
'Cause after all now
Dealing with you is a nuisance

Ever since I was young I've been wondering this
Why we walk on eggshells 'round the holy dimwitted
And if, if your tongue slips
You might have to take to task
At all of our hallowed institutions

Don't ask me for any favors
And I won't ask how you do it
Leave me alone now
'Cause after all now
Dealing with you is a nuisance

If you could laugh at yourself what difference would it make?
You could ignore dang cartoonists
And you wouldn't turn not to pray
But if distance persists
We'll preach to choirs
Raising ire where neither side
Will raise (the sign of grace)

This feud is getting old
No one is gonna be told to go along

Most of our questions have easy answers
Our only chance is let them be wrong

Don't ask me for any favors
And I won't ask how you do it
Leave me alone now
'Cause after all now
Dealing with you is a nuisance
