Date Night

(앨범: Where I Should End - 2021)

In the Orange County Social Club
We each set out our cases
You said I guess I'll show you the ropes
Let the nickels mark the bases

How much is the membership?
We'd like to stay around
You address the bar
Tell me what is there to do in this college town?

Sat on velvet sofas
You say I don't make the rules
I offer up my Allen key
You say it's good to carry tools

Catch your eye in sequences
And only pot the white
We've been drinking all week long
But something 'bout tonight

Why are you so fucking happy?
Saw you dancing in the canteen
I just wanna devastate you
Everything else seems to make you cry
Why don't I?

Right across the bar
The keeper lets us be
You tell me you got all the memos, baby
I got the receipts

Trying out my accent
You say I hope you don't mind
Cowboy hats like that one
Aren't too hard to find

I pick up one of those books
You keep rolling out
You say that'll radicalize you, babe
Oh that'll make you shout
Oh you wanna hear me shout?
Huh

Why are you so fucking happy?
Saw you dancing in the canteen
I just wanna devastate you
Everything else seems to make you cry
Why don't I?

Why you gotta be that way
I can't stand the racket
You look so much like a child
In that old jean jacket

Next time that you see me
I'll be swaying softly
We could pool some money
Fly in for the Christmas party
