Waltz For Grandma's Sake

(专辑： Goddammit I Love America! - 1988)

Old age wisdom and the world grown bald
But you're still amazed by every little hair that falls
And I wonder if repetition makes one forget
'Cause I'm under the impression that you're fraudulent
You're not really old

Tantrums reveal that rich experience
And those naked gums, the loss of all your confidence
Then you serve a dish I try hard to avoid
And it's backwards, my learnation is going to be destroyed

Finding worth in the worthless
Time spent learning to regress

I listen, try to care, say "mm-hmm" here and there
But there's something else inside
I try to be polite, make you feel all right
I can be anything you like
I'll be a virgin forever

Cataracts, everyone's the same old blur
And those stale snacks make me feel and feign inferior
But I'll make believe, trying to cooperate
And I hope you don't see me hide it underneath my plate

I'll get a backache and stumble over both left feet
Awake nervous knowing that we'll meet
Must I tolerate this useless game we dance and sing?
'Cause I don't relate, and I'm not learning anything at all

Force a circle into a square dance
Insist the future try and relive the past

I listen, try to care, say "mm-hmm" here and there
But there's something else inside
I try to be polite, make you feel all right
I can be anything you like
I'll be a virgin forever

I don't wanna dance, na na na...
