dozen 02:01
I've been looking for some lyrics that are public domain And I've been tryna find the guy who took out Kurt Cobain And I've been looking for love in my ex gf's place And I've been looking for love in my dead granddad's face And I tried to read Ulysses about a dozen times And I tried to watch the movie half a dozen times And I tried to kill myself six or seven times And I think I'll try again like three or four more times Caroline! I thought you killed me In Carolina, I thought you loved me And Caroline, I thought you killed me In Carolina I thought you loved me.

replacement 03:48
You don't have to be my friend if you don't want to You don't You don't have to talk to me I've got my records and anyway: I've got this basement This cell phone This gun I've got this And I can't wait til you shut up And I can't wait to find some new friends Replace the old ones Replace the new What’s another replacement, friend? Here's two drinks to starting over again. I guess I don't have to keep you around if you don't want to You don't You don't have to talk to me I've got my records and anyway: I've got this basement This cell phone This gun I've got this. And I will rot here And you will laugh. What’s another replacement, friend? Here's two drinks to starting over again.

in me 01:49
If I could write another record it would all be for you I'd quit the cigarettes The worthless sex I'd stop all the booze But I don't think i got that in me I got a paper cup A roll of film A hole in my shoe I got a copy of an older book I wanna give to you But I don't think I got that in me And if I ever get the guts to try to do this again I think I'd rather fucking rot than try to do this again I don't think I got this in me.

don't need 03:21
I'm sick and tired of being sick of myself I think it's time that I took all of these books off the shelf I think I'm done living on Jasons couch I think it's time I tried being in charge of myself Get in a car and move to Washington state Maybe watch what I hate And try to convince myself that I don't need you I'm sick and tired of watching movies alone Herzog's depressing enough anyway I'm done with all the girls And all the bars How they come up to me at midnight and say "What’s that say on the back of your van?" I say "it's Mrs. Hopewell, it's the name of my band" They say "aren't you a boy?" I say "it's from a book" It's my clever cover up when I'm on the hook
