Eleanor Friedberger - Does Turquoise Work? Songtexte

I heard him say, "I'd rather hurt myself than let you hurt me"
Was he talking about me
I heard him say, "I've been trying to sleep fourteen hours a day"
Was he talking about her

She was girl
So blonde
Does turquoise work
It never fails
Cross his name off the list
'Cause colors, who needs 'em

Look in the top drawer but quiet, don't think
The ugly picture was up for eight minutes today
The complete idiot was Lord for an hour

There was crystal deception at the disappointing picnic
The new dawn serves as memory loss meters
The shapes in the road were remedies for last week's mistakes
I used his foot as a phone and said something, something — no, never mind — nothing
