The Last Thing

Saw you in Penn Station on the phone

In a room of twenty people, all alone

You didn't lift your head

When the announcement came over the speaker

Just had a feeling in your bones:

"This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do"



Saw you with your fingers in your ears

As the siren certified your fears

You didn't want to help

'Cause you knew you weren't my sister

Happy as long as nobody hears:

"This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do"



Saw you with your makeup in a mess

You'll be down in fifteen minutes, no less

You never considered

That you deserved someone's affection

I'd like to know if you have any regrets

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do

This is the last thing I want to do
