Couldn’t You Wait?

Lyrics

Couldn't you wait For some time to elapse Check it before the trap was set And it collapsed like a Big net grass green rug screen wait Did you test the water with a big toe dip Don't put all your trust in that triple-timing bitch Could you elaborate On how you tempt fate Couldn't you wait Couldn't you wait To go on your foggy trips You were in the corner doing back flips I saw sweat on the wheelchair grips slip Couldn't you wait You never cooked up your medicine then Said the aspirin made your thick blood thin Every dinner was a capricorn a crown of thorns Couldn't you wait Yeah couldn't you wait You were funny to a fault Went too heavy on the salt Can you stand up straight While I illuminate a few of your flaws I thought you said you would never get your teeth capped How would you like to get your face slapped Did it hurt to take the time to make the new girl happy as a clam In a pair of tight 501s Is your fresh-faced neighbor any fun at all Do you still go off Like a gun that's gotten stuck on stun That's permanently stalled Do you still think you're god? Is your first day on the job even over yet? Is the summertime in heaven grand Is it fifty-nine past the eleven hand Oh couldn't you wait For the midnight train at least All these seagulls are insane beasts The taste of trouble's in my mouth like a candy cane Couldn't you wait Until the thought had passed That our love would never last How could you devastate someone you claim not to hate And couldn't you have waited Couldn't you have waited Couldn't you have waited Couldn't you wait
