Father

I have this dream that I am hitting my dad with a baseball bat

He is screaming and crying for help

And maybe halfway through, it has more to do with

Me killing him than it ever did protecting myself

And I believe that, yeah, dad, maybe no one is perfect

But I believe that you were pushing your luck

It just sucks it played out like this, a terrible movie

You can tell none of the actors even give a fuck

You look good tonight, girlfriend

Can I sleep in your bed?

And when I crawl out in the morning

Can I stay inside your head?

'Cause you were high-school

And I was just more like real life

And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend

I was just more like his wife

I'll do the push-ups

I'll wear the makeup

I'll do whatever he wants all night

'Cause you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend

I was just more like real life

A long, long time ago, my great-great-great-great grandfather

Took something that did not belong to him

And that is why today, I have an eagle in my veins

I am part Native American

And I am leaving as soon as I come

As soon as I come, you will probably forget my name

I hope I fall asleep at the wheel

And crash my car on the ride home

Or I could just stay here 'cause

You look good tonight, girlfriend

Can I sleep in your bed?

And when I crawl out in the morning

Can I stay inside your head?

'Cause you were high-school

And I was just more like real life

And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend

But I was just more like his wife

I'll wear the makeup

I'll do the push-ups

I'll do whatever he wants all night

'Cause you were okay as a girlfriend

And I was just more like real life

More like real life

More like real life

More like real life

More like real life

But you were high-school

And I was just more like real life

And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend

I was just more like his wife

And it is okay

I'll wear the makeup

I'll do whatever you want all night

'Cause you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend

But I was just more like real life

More like real life
