I Went To The Store One Day

歌詞

We met in a parking lot I was buying coffee and cigarettes Firewood and bad wine long since gone But I'm still drunk and hot Wide awake, breathing hard And now, in just one year's time I've become jealous, rail-thin Prone to paranoia when I'm stoned 'Cause isn't true love "Someone oughta put me in a home"? Say, do you wanna get married And put an end to our endless regressive tendency to scorn? Provincial concepts like your dowry and your daddy's farm For love to find us of all people I never thought it be so simple Ooh, ooh, ooh Let's buy a plantation house and let the yard grow wild Till we don't need the signs that say, "Keep Out" I've got some money left and it's cheaper in the south I need someone I can trust to protect me From our seven daughters when my body says, "Enough!" Don't let me die in a hospital I'll save the big one for the last time we make love Insert here A sentiment re: our golden years All 'cause I went to the store one day "Seen you around, what's your name?"
