Will you let me shift to dirt
Sift out what I'm worth
I can hang out in the flower pot
I'd like to stick around

I used to have a cactus at your house
But I drowned it out
And when it turned brown
I had to drop it down the garbage chute
With the coffee grounds

And it went down, down, down, now..

[Chorus]
I'm waking up
Knowing that
Knowing you is good for me
I'm waking no one
Though I know I'm
Feeling worse than before

Am I the stupid joke and the courtesy laugh
Because I don't want to be that
I'll tell you if it gets worse, and you tell me
Because there are worse things we could be

Than two screwups
Under god, indivisible
And I don't want to leave you
But I say I've got to go
Just to leave on a good note, now...

[Chorus]
