Bubblegum and Booze

When she's beside me I'm beside myself She's got a copy of the manifesto on her shelf Reading by candlelight, or taking a nap at three Watching documentaries produced by the BBC But what does she want from me? I don't know what she wants and either way I know that I can't provide it When she talks to me, I can't look away, with her stare now I can't avoid it In the moment, when I don't know what to do I get real close to her, and I know we're gonna share bubblegum and booze When she's beside me I don't know what to do When I'm thinking about her is she thinking about me too? At fast food restaurants, or playing trivia by the sea Gotta keep her occupied so she won't think of leaving me What does she want from me? I don't know what she wants and either way I know that I can't provide it When she talks to me, I can't look away, with her stare now I can't avoid it In the moment, when I don't know what to do I get real close to her, and I know we're gonna share bubblegum and Boozing up on the weekend Going out with all our friends Got another party to attend But when the party is done We're gonna lose touch with everyone But that's okay because the fun has just begun I don't know what she wants and either way I know that I can't provide it When she talks to me, I can't look away I don't know what she wants and either way I know that I can't provide it When she talks to me, I can't look away, with her stare now I can't avoid it In the moment, when I don't know what to do I get real close to her, and I know we're gonna share bubblegum and I don't know what she wants and either way When she talks to me, I can't look away In the moment, I never know what to do I get real close to her, and I know we're gonna share bubblegum and booze
