Luyện nghe bài hát For Mayor in Splitsville

Funny what you think of after a
While lying in the dirt the first thing that comes is never quite what you'd have guessed
And if you could have, you probably would've said you'd if all your limbs were intact still and
try to get out

We played house with the neighbors in their
Sister made me husband she was older so I did her
I remember once their dad came in said, "You this is bad?
You know the half." And he laughed.

It's funny what things come
The first you see

How he sort of like it's only a joke but he was lying
There was something else inside of his
All those secrets tell to little children
Are warnings that give them
Like, "Look, I'm unhappy. Please don't make the same as me."

Why are those old worn out on married life told at toasts at receptions still?
How does it never occur how often couples get burned and end uncertain in

Funny what you think of in the wreckage, there in the dirt and the dust and the glass
How you're suddenly somewhere, in the desert, in the nighttime, and it's getting close to
And then her and that movie voice she when she reads,
"Welcome to the Land of Enchantment" a highway sign
And it's so you take the next exit

When that trip ended we back the rent was due I was jobless
I guess in retrospect I sensed decay
Then that day, how you said, "I just don't know" and I
rearrange things to fix the mess I'd made here

But I guess in the end we moved furniture around 3X

But I in the end it sort of feels like every day it's harder to stay happy where you are
There are all these ways to look through the into your neighbor's yard
Why even risk it? safer to stay distant
When it's so hard now to just be
there's always something else

Now I'm proposing my own toast, my own joke for those married men
Maybe I'm miserable, I'd rather run for mayor in Splitsville than suffer your jokes
