Sigh. Lyric spam day. From the first twenty songs coming up on itunes.

1. Sleeping on the subway in my interview tie
Wander through the rain, sit and wonder why
I haven't got a plan, I haven't got a clue
I've only got one lonely thing that's gonna see me through
--"Little Black Ache" by Bishop Allen, id'd by zarahelma

2. Oh no don't talk to me
'Cause you're way too stoned
And you're way too drunk

3. Do not listen to my song
Don't remember it, don't sing along
Let's pretend it's a work of art
Let's pretend it's not my heart
--"I'm Sorry I Love You" by The Magnetic Fields, id'd by fantasmabob

4. I charm you and tell you of the boys I hate
All the girls I hate, all the words I hate, all the clothes I hate
How I'll never be anything I hate
You smile, mention something that you like
Oh, how you'd have a happy life
If you did the things you like
--"The Dark of the Matinee" by Franz Ferdinand, id'd by moireach

5. You understand where she's coming from
Which I obviously don't
Or she wouldn't be gone
--"Acoustic Guitar" by The Magnetic Fields, id'd by fantasmabob

6. The world's a mess and you're my only cure
Is it time for me to act mature?
The only words I know are more, more and more

7. Everything I need is denied me
And everything I want is taken away from me
And who do I got to blame?
Nobody but me

8. I just made love to your sweet memory
One thousand times in my head
You said you loved it more than ever
You said
--"The World Has Turned and Left Me Here" by Weezer, id'd by silverakira

9. Well I met up with my common sense
And I knew her by the rose in her hair
She said son, if you don't make a noise
God will never know you're there

10. And it's cool and the ointment's sweet
For the fire in your head and feet
--"Everything's Alright" from Jesus Christ Superstar, id'd by lynnmonster

11. In the night crushed empty can
Olive Oil's waiting for her man
To come in from like that will change their life
For good this time

12. Do you come here all the time
Why are yours fluffier than mine?

13. No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger
Everyone
--"Turning Japanese" by The Vapors, id'd by fox1013

14. We found your children by the tavern door
With wooden buttons and an apple core
Playing house and telling everyone you'd drowned

15. Should pretty boys in discos
Distract you from your novel
Remember I'm awful in love with you
--"Come Back From San Francisco" by The Magnetic Fields, id'd by lynnmonster

16. Take off the dress
Take off the face
I'll hold you close before I leave

17. Just like a muse
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
--"Like a Prayer" by Madonna, id'd by fox1013

18. I will try not to worry
I have seen things you will never see
Leave it to memory me

19. And the license you had to stick around until I was dead
But if you're tired of looking at my face
I guess I already am
--"Divorce Song" by Liz Phair, id'd by lynnmonster

20. She'd had no idea
She started to cry
She said in a good way

How much do I not want to deal with the bus and the alone and the grocery store and blah? A lot. But my need for food and medicine calls to me, and so I shall have to deal with it.
