Written very quickly while waiting for a friend at a coffee shop in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Tampa.
lyrics
You need a lover who's bastard-sized
Maybe a pop shot Valentine
You try to give me a spiteful stare
But I'm instantly likable
I hope you find someone who cares
Someone as desperate as you
Dirty sequins on a tattered dress
It's only the monsters that love you the best
My friends thought me not to trust
(No thanks to you) just let me
Over-analyze myself
The news and the late, late night conclude
