BETTER THAN EZRA LYRICS - Allison Foley

"Allison Foley"



"CALMLY, LIKE A RAZOR

I GOT US ON THE DOOR,"

OR "I GOT A TAPE OF 'CLERKS'

SOMEONE LEFT THE NIGHT BEFORE."



SO I GO OVER LATER,

YOU'RE SITTING IN THAT CHAIR

SMOKING ON YOUR CIGARETTE

FINGERING YOU HAIR



SO I GET DRUNK AND STONED,

EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND.



TWENTY-NINE AND AIMLESS

YOU BARTEND DOWN ON FOURTH

YOUR PARENTS PAY INSURANCE

AND THE PARSON'S AUDIT COURSE



OVER-SCHOOLED AND UNINSPIRED

A TRUST FUND UP YOUR NOSE

ALL THAT WASTED TALENT BUT, UH

AIN'T THAT HOW IT ALWAYS GOES?



SO I GET DRUNK AND STONED,

EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND.

YEAH, YEAH YEAH



SO LONG ALISON FOLEY

SO LONG, BYE-BYE



(COME UP HIGHER, TAKE A STEP HIGHER)

SOMETIMES YOU UNDERSTAND

THE REASONS HOW YOU WENT ASTRAY

BUT LEAST OF ALL THE ANSWER,

THAT IT HURTS TO WATCH YOU WASTE AWAY.



SO I GET DRUNK AND STONED,

EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND.

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.



SO LONG, ALISON FOLEY

SO LONG, BYE-BYE
