Harvey Danger - Woolly Muffler lyrics

all i ever wanted to be was a woolly muffler on your naked neck
double-wrap me when it is cold
but you pulled a little tight just now
and i am afraid i feel a choke hold coming on

all i ever thought we might come to was 2nd dates
and flirting eyebrows
or maybe even psychic friends
and we could share a secret language
and almost definitely make more of it
than it was
but everyone around us would know
everyone watching would know

this isn´t a walk with walking wounded
here is the ball, here is the pole, now where is the tether
where is the tether?
hands can grow together
if you are not careful or grateful or whatever
and i never much cared much too much to begin with

i´ll not take your possibilities under my care
i´ll not see you on the bus
you want me to hold your hand
it is a courtship i cannot stand
and here i thought you were crying because you were happy
but no no no

friends will turn against you
people disappoint you every time
so if you have got greatness in you´d you do us all a favor
and keep it to yourself?
keep it
keep it to yourself

a labored expat fantasy:
quit your job & move away with me
oh what bliss it´d be
to pretend we never met

i am elated now
i am elated now
i am elated now
i am elated now
