Luyện nghe bài hát For Mayor in Splitsville

Funny what you think of a collapse
While lying in the dirt the first thing that comes back is quite what you'd have guessed
And if you could have, you probably would've said you'd check if all your limbs were intact and
try to get out

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

It's funny what come back
The things you see

How he sort of smiled like only a joke but he was lying
was something else inside of his eyes
All those secrets people to little children
Are that they give them
Like, "Look, I'm unhappy. don't make the same mistake 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 you think of in the wreckage, lying there in the dirt and the dust and the glass
How you're somewhere, in the desert, in the nighttime, and it's getting close to Christmas
And then her and movie voice she uses when she reads,
"Welcome to the of Enchantment" from a highway sign
And it's late so you take the next

When that ended we came back the rent was due I was jobless
I guess in retrospect I should've decay
that day, how you said, "I just don't know" and I promised
We'd rearrange to fix the mess I'd made here

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

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

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