What’s with these girls hovering around me?
All of these girls laughing at something I can’t see.
Tell all these girls I won’t take care of them if all these girls don’t smile when I approach.
They’ll never warm up to me.
Not this time around.
Maybe next time I’ll be so handsome they’ll be fighting about…
They’ll never warm up to me.
Not this time around.
Maybe next time I’ll have so much talent, there’ll be little doubt how much these girls really really need me and which of these girls will draw me a bath.
Tell all these girls, “stop acting like children,” or I’ll cover my ears and act like one too.
They’ll never warm up to me.
Not this time around.
Maybe next time I’ll be so handsome they’ll be fighting about…
They’ll never warm up to me.
Not this time around.
Maybe next time I’ll have so much talent, there’ll be little doubt how much these girls really really love me. Without me, these girls, they won’t be complete.
Hey, make sure these girls, they know that they’re wanted.
But, hey you, you girls, we need not have spoke.

Drone Bomb You

Oh, I want to care and I want you to make me care, if you can.
But, we won’t get anywhere if you claim to know the hearts of men better than I do.
Show us what was there and now we have to know that there’s nothing there.
Let us see a house and a yard. It doesn’t feel that far from here, it’s a place that we’ve been to.
Tell me something to make it real.
But, don’t admonish me.
Paint a picture: he was lying in a field content if we let him be.
But don’t say I drone bomb you.
And then you drone bomb me.
I’ve now no choice, I drone bomb you
And you must answer drone bomb me.
Sometime later I drone bomb you.
Because you drone bomb me.
It starts anew, drone bomb you.
And then you drone bomb me.

Given time, you could learn to love me.
And I wouldn’t mind should you sit near me.
Given time, you might think I’m pretty.
And I wouldn’t mind should you want to touch me.
I scratch at you like a bird outside my window.
But, I’ll wait. It’s almost your birthday.
Happy almost birthday.
