If she asks, don't I'll tell her that I'm living hand-to-mouth
Don't tell her that I'm sleeping on your couch
And if she asks just tell her that we opened for the Stones
It's her favorite band except for the Ramones

And if she happens to suggest
A love based on trust and respect
Tell I've been wasted since last week
And if she wants to stop on by
Tell her that I almost died
Tell her I ain't seein' people yet
Yeah but ask her to send cigarettes

And if she calls don't tell her 'bout the bloodshed in the streets
The less she knows the less she can repeat
If she happens to bring up
The pin pricks and the throwin' up
Tell her it's just part of growin' up
If she wants to get involved
Tell her to stay in St. Paul
Tell her I ain't up for takin' calls
But ask her for some Adderall

Yeah 'cause we're gonna have to focus
If we're gonna fight this
We gotta stay tenacious
If she asks just tell her that we're too far gone to deal
She should know exactly how that feels
And if she wants a scene report
Don't tell her 'bout the kicked in doors
Tell her they ain't even keeping score no more
And if she wants to help the cause
Tell her we need tape and gauze
Tell her she should look through all her medicine
To see if she's got Klonopin

Cause I got all this anxiety
Yeah I'm afraid she won't get high with me
I got all this anxiety
