Pedestrian At Best

Courtney Barnett 2015.05.22 2
[Verse 1]
I love you, I hate you, 
I'm on the fence, 
it all depends
Whether I'm up or down, 
I'm on the mend, 
transcending all reality
I like you, despise 
you, admire you
What are we gonna do 
when everything all 
falls through?
I must confess, 
I've made a mess of 
what should be 
a small success
But I digress, at least 
I've tried my very best, 
I guess
This, that, the other, 
why even bother?
It won't be with me on 
my deathbed, but 
I'll still be in your head

[Chorus]
Put me on a pedestal and 
I'll only disappoint you
Tell me I'm exceptional, 
I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money, 
and I'll make some 
origami, honey
I think you're a joke, 
but I don't find 
you very funny

[Verse 2]
My internal monologue is 
saturated analog
It's scratched and drifting, 
I've become attached to the idea
It's all a shifting dream, 
bittersweet philosophy
I've got no idea how 
I even got here
I'm resentful, I'm having 
an existential time crisis
Want bliss, daylight savings 
won't fix this mess
Under-worked and over-sexed, 
I must express my disinterest
The rats are back inside 
my head, what would 
Freud have said?

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I wanna wash out my head 
with turpentine, cyanide
I dislike this internal 
diatribe when I try to 
catch your eye
I hate seeing you cry 
in the kitchen
I don't know why it affects 
me like this when 
you're not even mine 
to consider
Erroneous, harmonious, 
I'm hardly sanctimonious
Dirty clothes, I suppose 
we all outgrow ourselves
I'm a fake, I'm a phoney, 
I'm awake, I'm alone
I'm homely, I'm a Scorpio

[Chorus] x2
