The Front Bottoms
Jim Bogart
[Verse 1: Brian Sella]
I would sleep better on your floor
Than I would ever in my bed
And if your carpet makes my face itch
It'd still be heaven in my head
I would play more than just four chords
If it's a song that you might like
But I am not very good
So I would practice every night
[Chorus: Brian Sella & Natalie Newbold]
And she said
"Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way you want them to
Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way they should flow through
Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way you want them to
Sometimes, things just don't work out
It's better me than it is you"
[Bridge: Brian Sella]
"Break your neck, and I will love you
Like a bird that cannot fly
You will be fine"
And she says, "Break your neck
And I will love you every night
You will be mine"
[Verse 2: Brian Sella]
I would stop doing all those things
The doctor tells me not to do
But I don't think he understands
I do all of these things for you
And you've got gold plastic on your shelf
That they gave to everybody else
And you can say it says your name
But I don't think that that would help
[Chorus: Brian Sella & Natalie Newbold]
And she says
"Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way you want them to
Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way they should flow through
Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way you want them to
Sometimes, things just don't work out
It's better me than it is you"
[Bridge: Brian Sella & Natalie Newbold]
"Break your neck and I will love you
Like a bird that cannot fly
You will be fine"
And she says, "Break your neck
And I will love you every night
You will be mine"
[Coda: Brian Sella & Natalie Newbold]
And today, we can do something
That we've never done before
Yeah, today, we can do something more
And today, we can do something
That we've never done before
Done before
And today, we can do something
That we've never done before
Yeah, today, we can do something more
And today, we can do something
That we've never done before
Done before
