Anthrax Shirt

from Stay Inside by Just Nick

lyrics

after droppin' out of art school,
moving here from Baltimore,
she'd gotten married to the wrong man
I feel so ignored!
Just like back home in Minnesota,
with your purple hair tied up
you ate acid in a bathtub,
and told me all about love

I think I was 16, I think you were 23.
I listened to slayer, you sang:
"Hi diddle dee dee, goddamn the pirates life for me, goddamn the pirates life for me!"
but you're not the only girl that I wish I could've kissed
in my anthrax shirt on the graveyard shift

you ordered a drink, and I just sat and stared at you
oh, you had found me hopeless and I'd found you hopeless too
you passed me your drink, with no idea what to do, I had found you hopeless, you were oh so fucking hopeless

it hurt to see you cry, with that final glass of wine,
I haven't seen you since we started workin' overtime
there are people in our lives, who we need from time to time, only know 'em for the summer, but it's feels perfectly fine

you told me you'd dropped out of art school and moved here from baltimore she'd gotten married to the wrong man 'I feel so ignored' just like back home in Minnesota, purple mohawk, fuckin' drunk, you ate acid in a bathtub, and told me all about love
