So long, goodbye I'll see you when I see you You can pick the street I'll meet you on the other side So long, goodbye Do I really have to finish? Do returns always diminish? Did I say that right? Does anybody want a song When no one's listening in the background? So this is how it ends I promise never to record again So long, goodbye I'm losing my willpower Has it only been an hour? No, that can't be right So long, goodbye Hey, here's a fun idea How about I sit on the couch And I let you write one I want to hear you write a song When no one's listening in the background So this is how it ends I promise never to record again Am I going crazy? What do I even know? Am I right back where I started all these years ago? I want to guess the ending If it even does I swear to God that all I ever wanted Was a little bit of everything all of the time A bit of everything all of the time Empathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime I'm finished playing and I'm staying inside If I wake up in a house that's full of smoke I'll panic So call me up and sing me a song When I'm fully irrelevant and totally boring, damn it Call me up and sing me a song Oh shit You wrote this bullshit at a time like this Well, well, look who's inside again Went out to look for a reason to hide again Well, well, buddy you found it So come out with your hands up We've got you surrounded
