Woolly Muffler Lyrics

Woolly Muffler lyrics

all i ever wanted to be was a woolly muffler on your naked neck  

 double wrap me when it's cold  

 but you pulled a little tight just now  

 and i'm afraid i feel a choke hold coming on  

 all i ever thought we might come to was second dates  

 and flirting eyebrows  

 or maybe even psychic friends  

 and we could share a secret language  

 and almost definitely make more of it  

 than it was  

 but everyone around us would know  

 everyone watching would know  

 this is not a walk with walking wounded  

 here's the ball, here's the pole, now where's the tether  

 where's the tether?  

 hands can grow together  

 if you're not careful or grateful or whatever  

 and i never much cared much too much to begin with  

 i will not take your possibilities under my care  

 i will not see you on the bus  

 you want me to hold your hand  

 it's a courtship i can't stand  

 and here i thought you were crying because you were happy  

 but no no no  

 friends will turn against you  

 people disappoint you every time  

 so if you've got greatness in you would you do us all a favor  

 and keep it to yourself?  

 keep it  

 keep it to yourself  

 a labored expat fantasy:  

 quit your job and move away with me  

 oh what bliss it would be  

 to pretend we never met  

 i'm elated now  

 i'm elated now  

 i'm elated now  

 i'm elated now
