Amanda: We're gonna play a song of Tom's now that we've never done before. And we're gonna sing it together, Jen's gonna play. I've known Tom for a long time. And actually, I met him in a tent not unlike this one in Edinburgh at the Fringe, maybe--

Tom: Three years ago?

Amanda: Three or four years ago, yeah. And...

Tom: I was cleaning mirrors. That was my job. Cleaning these fucking mirrors. Every day

Amanda: And since then we've become good friends and Tom's been one of my best friends in Melbourne. And he's a great, great songwriter. So I feel honored to be singing this song with him

Tom: Thank you

[Tom Dickins]
I have a little house
Close to town but not to the city
Far from home but near my family
No water views but so close to the sea
I see, this is how my little life could be

[Amanda Palmer]
And I'm filling it with things
Like furniture that I find on the street
And all the special things I'd like to eat
Pictures of people that I'd like to meet, oh meet
Well I'm orbiting the world
[Tom Dickins]
And it's so pretty and so lonely

[Amand Palmer]
My little love affairs are all scheduled 'round the TV guide
And my sex life has all been plagiarized
In an attempt to meet a harsh deadline

[Tom Dickins]
I'd like to rent a wife
Then rent a husband to keep her for life
The three of us, we could be so happy
Then with each other, meet with company
I'll see them, I'll find a flight around the world

[Tom Dickins; Amanda Palmer; Together]
And it's so pretty and so lonely
I could just die, I might just die
I could just die, I might just die

[Tom Dickins; Amanda Palmer; Together]
And at my funeral
They will say "Tom, he was such a nice guy
He went too early but he went in style"
They'll play my music and then they will cry
Then they'll have a little wake
They'll drink bad wine and they'll eat lemon cake
And my mothers little heart will break
And she'll say "Wait there must be must some mistake
He can't be dead, take me instead"
[Together]
Oh but I'm not dead
They tell me I'm not dead
They say that I'm not dead

[Tom Dickins]
But I won't die for some time

[Tom Dickins; Amanda Palmer]
I'm in my little house
Just writing little songs to past the time
Which incidentally is 7:49
So don't you worry I'm completely fine, I'm fine
And don't you worry I'm completely fine, I'm fine

[Tom Dickins]
I'm just so fucking fine

[Banter]
Amanda: Tom Dickins! Jen Kingwell! The Jane Austen Argument, ladies and gentlemen!

Tom: Thank you, my dear
