Joyce Manor
Stairs
[Verse 1]
So you just stand there
With a dollar at your feet
And you wait as I retreat
To go get mine
And when I get back
You're still waiting silently
'Cause my mother's fast asleep
Right next door

[Bridge]
Yeah, I'm 26, and I still live with my parents
Oh, I can't do laundry
Christ, I can't do dishes
What'll I do without you?
When your body fails you
When nobody loves you
All they do is miss you
But they don't even care

[Chorus]
So be careful when you run downstairs
Be careful who you talk to
Or the wonderful way you walk
You are like a magnet for all evil
[Verse 2]
So you just stand there
With a dollar at your feet
And you wait as I retreat
To go get mine
And when I get back
You're too terrified to speak
And my brother's such a creep
Even more

[Chorus]
Yeah, be careful when you run downstairs
Be careful who you talk to
Or the wonderful way you walk
You are like a magnet for all evil
'Cause there's so much good inside you
And I wish that I could hide you
Someplace no one could hurt you
Where nobody could change you

[Bridge]
I'll lock you in my room
And I'll tie you to the sheets
'Cause I could watch you sleep for weeks
Oh, the things you'd never see
If it were up to me
[Break]
Oh, I can't do laundry
Christ, I can't do dishes
What'll I do without you?

"So - like - punch in on the thing because I still...
I did it wrong the first time and then I did it good the second."
