Dinner Date

Lyrics

Is this the right way to eat this? Do I have food on my face, or is it in my teeth? Have I been chewing this bite for too long? She's been chewing that bite for a while Maybe I don't chew enough in general Did I put my napkin in my lap yet? Should I? Has she? Maybe I should wait Until she does it before I do? What if I do, but she never does it? Is this not the type of a restaurant Where you unfold the napkin in your lap? Did she notice I ate around the food I don't like? Should I finish my whole plate even if I- I don't really like it, so that I don't seem all that wasteful? Is finishing the whole plate distasteful, like gluttony? Did I place my order correctly? Did I talk to the server politely? Did I smile too much, where it might seem like I'm being flirtatious or creepy? How am I supposed to have a good time? I'd like to resume the conversation, but I have to finish this bite quickly I don't want to talk with my mouth full Maybe I should just resume talking Like as I'm kind of finishing the bite, so that it's not that gross But so that I can keep the conversation from lulling What if I spit a piece of food talking? Did I really just put my elbows up on the table just for a second? Wait… she put her elbows on the table for a second (Am I breathing too hard? Am I blinking too much?) Does this give me the permission to put my elbows up on the table? Wait, I don't even think it's comfortable to put my elbows up on the table Why do I even care? Is it okay to just rest my wrists there On the table occasionally, or are my arms supposed to stay totally off the table? Maybe I should just watch her But what if she exhibits bad manners? Then I won't learn anything from her Maybe I should watch other people I don't think we have a chance If I can't calculate this in advance Cause I hate this miserable song and dance Maybe we should see other people
