lyrics

picture this, it's coming down and we can’t get a cab
one broken umbrella and two of us glad
to be with each other beneath awnings full of holes
in yellow rain jackets still wet to the bone
we were shivering and laughing like that time when
they caught us kissing in the walk-in freezer as soon as we'd clocked in
you laughed and told me dear get your chin up off the floor
because all ever did was scowl and slam the door

making flippy floppy, making coffee, kissing ourselves mute
sweet and sitting pretty, keeping busy, living in swim suits
repeating ourselves endlessly we never come in last
sending the big world postcards signed we’re never coming back

so we're standing here, dripping wet, waiting for the rain to stop
so we pop into charlie's pull up two stools at the bar
you're joking with the waitress and she's laughing along
i feed the jukebox a coin and pick out a song
you take my hand and clear the floor and say c'mon turn it up
the song hasn't started so we both drain our cups
heart of gold comes on again and the waitress rolls her eyes
she asks do you two have to do this every goddamn night?


making flippy floppy, making coffee, kissing ourselves mute
sweet and sitting pretty, keeping busy, living in swim suits
repeating ourselves endlessly but we never come in last
sending the big world postcards saying we’re never coming back


i have a paper hat on my concussion
we had sex instead of breakfast
you make faces at babies through car windows at stop lights

picture this, it's coming down and it's never going to stop
so we pay our tab and hopscotch home while we window shop
we jangle through the side door keys and jackets hit the floor
we've never had enough, so i guess it's time for more
