B-side to What the Housewives Don't Tell You
Released 6/9/04
Dogbox Records (BOX1)

   

pin me down

so we meet up in a public space
you’re very easy to spot, you look so desperate
we spend too much money on unsuitable things
swapping our life stories and trying to look pleased

with our lot, have you got quite what i need?
it all goes so well, we applaud the same things

so pin me down
if you really must
and there’s really nobody else at hand
pin me down if you really must
although it’s inadvisable

i’ve made the switch from ultra strong to fetherlite
it wasn’t that hard, but now it doesn’t feel right
the days between your phone calls telescope into hours
please don’t be surprised when i start to back off

cut short my replies and then start screening my calls
i’m sorry i’m not won in the usual way

i only want what’s unlikely, dear
i like the theory more than the practical
you’d only be disappointed
i’d only be disappointed
