Jack's Mannequin - Last Straw lyrics
"Last Straw"
I heard that you went out last night 
 And you looked beautiful just like a bat 
 Beneath the moonlight 
 I stayed home took a Vicodin... 
 Sometimes it's all that I can do 
 When I think about the president 
 How did he become the president? 
 And I stayed awake for a day or two 
 I thought about the world 
 Drank gin and watched the news 
 And there are some things I'll never understand 
 Why the country needs a God 
 And a woman needs a man 
 And you never write me letters 
 And you never sent my sweaters 
 So I could stay warm when I was without you 
 Without you I don't sleep 
 Just dream... 
 And I scratch these words into a black notebook 
 I wrote your name on top I knew you'd never look 
 I tried my best to fight the atmosphere 
 To think the happy thoughts 
 That leave the phone lines clear Jack's Mannequin - Last Straw - http://motolyrics.com/jacks-mannequin/last-straw-lyrics.html
 I see Arizona stars from here 
 But Peter Pan is miles away 
 And you never write me letters 
 And you never sent my sweaters 
 So I could stay warm when I was without you 
 Without you I don't have... 
 A place that's safe from all the monsters 
 That hide in my head and sing me to sleep (sleep) 
 This is the last straw... 
 This is the last straw she said 
 And I won't wait for you forever 
 While you run around like JFK 
 You watched that poor girl 
 Waste the best years of her life 
 And I'll be damned if I am going out 
 I will not go out that way! 
 And you never write me letters 
 And you never sent my sweaters 
 So you could stay warm when I was gone 
 Without you I don't have... 
 A place that's safe from all the monsters 
 That hide in my head and keep me 'til dawn 
 And I think this is the last straw.
