the Electric Veltens - Halitosis Lyrics

You like the color of my shirt
But you hate the one who wears it
I've never been good enough for you
On my sleeve I wear my heart
On my heart I wear a band-aid
The band-aid is the color of my skin
But my skin is bare
My libido's well aware
That my sleeve has been ripped from my shirt
And it can never be mended
I'll just always miss a sleeve
With your fingernail polish stain left on my shoulder
Your hands are cold
Your heart is colder
I'm nervous and my hands are in my pockets
They're not coming up for air
I never had a lot of money
'Cause I lost it in the couch
If I looked, could I find you there, too?
But my couch was bare
And I couldn't find you there
I woke up stuck between the cushions
And I know it sounds crazy
But you're the one for me
So I'll stay awake and call you on my touchtone telephone
A catastrophe with apathy is keeping you away from me
It's all that I can do to stay awake
You're just like everybody else
But am I the one to blame?
Is it timing or my face that's keeping you away?
