lyrics

let's just remember that I didn't want to come here
you invited me, you begged me to go.
and now the crowd's in silence, watching your guitar god
but he's just a balding man, it's just a show
it's so pretentious, so familiar
it's so thoughtless, it's so boring
it's exactly like you

and I've been nothing here but kind and patient
I said that I'd always be true
but I've been sitting by these empty barstools
I see this means nothing to you

I drink club soda cause we're trying to get pregnant
but you're tossing back shots like you drink for two
and then you're in the alley, smoking with your buddy
getting high again which you said you no longer do
I'm just your designated driver, you're my sperm bank
though I don't think you'll be good for that tonight

and this ring is your trophy
I'll keep it sparkly and polished
my head's the only place where I am ever honest
and I hate it there

and our 10th reunion I ran into all the men that I discarded when I said yes to you
what happened to our kappa sweetheart, social chairman
tell me all about it, come to my room
they're all lawyers, neurosurgeons, they're all someone
does my someone even know where I have gone?

Everything in Pen San Francisco

Combining the pop sensibility of Big Star and narrative observations of Jonathan Richman and Aimee Mann, Everything in Pen’s songs cover many topics---war criminals, sexism, and Dave Eggers--through her unique lens as an obsessive reader. She sings the things you won’t say aloud, of the foolishness, the hopefulness and the almost unbearable humanness of us all. ... more
