The Grumpus 02:31
Push it out again The Grumpus lumbers into town The Grumpus slumbers underground The Grumpus slumbers underground Oh Lord no I shan't wake her I've learned the hard way not to try On pain of death I love you more On pain of death I love you more And when you go back to my school Would you still play me for a fool? Don't be the girl to break my heart Don't be the girl to break my heart Freaking out again I tried to hard to cut you out This paper heart so full of doubt I tried so hard to cut you out In time I hoped to be your best friend Cool California soul Your tinfoil gut so full of doubt You tried so hard to cut me out And when you go back to my school Would you still play me for a fool? Don't be the girl to break my heart Don't be the girl to break my heart

I'm heading south Some lovebolt lightning struck my heart Bluebirds wait In time I'll be a better man I swear to be a better man Lay me down Six feet in You're the last Queen of Hollywood Persian Prince Are you the love I've waited for? I'll catch the stars You have my all but ask for more You have my all but ask for more Lay me down Six feet in You're the last Queen of Hollywood And you are my best friend You are dead, America In my death The Lord alone shall be my judge But with your love I know I'll be a better man I know I'll be a better man Lay me down Six feet in You're the last Queen of Hollywood And you are my best friend You are dead, America Lay me down Six feet in You're the last Queen of Hollywood And you are my best friend And you are my best friend In time you'll see

Pick me up my love I'm falling at your feet Mercy please, I beg of thee Should you doubt me, place your fingers in my wounds This flesh is mine, I offer you I'm overcome with joy Be my girl I'll be your boy This love is overwhelming You're stretching me out And time can heal all wounds And time shall be the death of you Some sacrifice I offer now declined Won't you be my Mary-Jane? I'm starving I can eat no more These stretch marks tore my world in two God knows what they did to you This love is overwhelming You're stretching me out Lover Will I be King? Are you so unkind? From this gutter, I can see no stars Lover Must you be blue? Promise me this That when I'm gone he'll care for you You're stretching me out

Suki likes to go out dancing Some dumbstruck hip-shake rock and roll She gets her fix from some Long Island sailor Moved on Vasaline, stuck some place in the now and in-between She spat in the face of the Virgin Mary And I spilt blood on sanitised Manhattan streets And I guess some hearts got broken that New Years' But a boy can still dream Right? Don't be a fool Stay gold Ponyboy I love you still Suki's got some gutter-mouth god-like man now I think he works on the Lower East Side I thought I saw her with some Puerto Ricans on the subway Friday night I guess this city loves me back When I first came to New York I was bathed in the glow of your tenement love And though Lady Liberty is hunched like a beggar And though your core is rotten You still taste so sweet Don't be a fool Stay gold Ponyboy I love you still
