(others singing "probably won't miss you" repeated in a
swing style through most of the song)

(Dave)
There was a perfume on the breeze,
the moon, the trees...

(others singing "voo-da-dup")

(Dave w/ others singing "voo-ba-dup" at various times)
In a great northern open...
When our love was goin' on, and on
We made a home for two worlds, two strings

Weee-ahhh-oooh
(Dave)
Now I'm pacing, always

(All)
bumping into all the same things

(Dave)
When it's finally final
(Mike)
Our love is final
(Dave)
You come home and your stuff's out on the lawn
(Dave w/ others singing "ahhhh")
I don't think that I will miss you
(Mike)
I don't think that I will miss you

(All) (Jian trailing off)
I probably won't keep in touch
'cause I don't love you that much that much...

(Dave primarily singing in the background)
Totally rockin, totally loose
Totally decent, totally spruce (?screwsed?)
Goin' to Murray's, goin' to Mike's
Goin' to Jian's, ridin' on bikes

(bird chirping sounds periodically)

(Dave in background)
Covered as smokey, ???
Workin' ?royal orchard?, Workin' Laura Lee??

(Mike laughing)

Totally Sony, totally great

(Dave in background)
Totally decent, totally ?spruce?
Totally decent, totally ?spruce?
Totally decent, totally ?spruce?

(Dave w/ others joining in on certain words)
There was a perfume on the breeze
The moon, the trees

(Dave w/ others singing "voo-ba-dup" at various times)
Now there's shit in the trumpet
For all the bloodletting, we've still got the same disease
(Jian)
I still got the same disease

(Dave w/ others singing "ahhh")
Satan in satin slippers

(Dave w/ others) (Jian in background)
Christ on a crooked crutch
'cause I don't love you that much I don't love you that much,
don't love you that much

(Mike)
I don't...

(Dave w/ others singing "probably won't miss you" over and over)
No I don't love (Dave: love) you that much
(Dave)
No I don't love you that much
(Dave)
Yeah, I don't love you that much.....
