lyrics

when I walked into the bathroom
I didn't think it would be life changing
I was just trying to take care of some needs that I had
you were walking out when I walked in
I'm not sure if we said something
but as I washed my hands I felt sure
that somehow we'd be friends

and next week I'll be sad because you're not around
next week I'll be cranky, I'll be blue

Later on that night, we all went in a pack out to this bar
that someone's friend said someone's cousin said
they'd heard that it was cool
I didn't have id, stuck in the street
you came back out and said let's walk back to the dorm
do you think you know where it might be?

and next week I'll be sad because you're not around
next week I'll be cranky, I'll be blue
but until then there's the promise that
we might laugh for hours
cause this week, this week you fly in

you say, don't write a song about me
will you say I don't return your calls?
I travel too much for work
this year has sucked so far
don't write a song about me
I don't really want to see my reflection

remember when I went to cleveland
just so we could ride together
through the flatlands of ohio on our way to u of m
and somewhere in sylvania
we heard born to run on the radio
we sang until our throats hurt
we couldn't hold the tune, didn't know the words

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
