lyrics

This seemed like the kinda place, you would go to meet your mistress
So many times, you just wanted me to kiss you
Meant more than a room full of meaningful glances
When we broke down on the corner of, Straight Street and Genesis

Dear God, here comes the romantic notion
Who knows what lurks beneath those skinny jeans
Hope in a hand shake, and
Wine in a Nalgeen

She said, she past the point of no return
Said, I hope you're talkin' 'bout sex and not suicide
There's only so much we can do by the river
Yeah, there's only so much we can do with eachother
And I, can't see the stars
'Cause there's rain on the water
And this plank in my eyes, got me lookin' for pliers

Rochester's like a midwestern Mobile
Except it's not underwater
Perched like genies on the hood of that cherry creamy car
Going through the gifts you gave me in the ginger jar
Got a bag o'seeds 'n stems
'Nd cherry flavor blunt wrap
And a bottle of tequila

And she said, she past the point of no return
Said, I hope you're talkin' bout sex and not suicide
There's only so much we can do by the river
Yeah, there's only so much we can do with eachother
And I, can't see the stars
'Cause there's rain on the water
And this plank in my eyes, got me lookin' for pliers

We'll figure it out, girl we always do
I'll show you; sloppy, shaggy bastard
You on a line, and me on a stamp
You're not an after-thought, you're not a Christmas card

'She said, she past the point of no return
Said, I hope you're talkin' bout sex and not suicide
There's only so much we can do by the river
Yeah, there's only so much we can do with eachother
And I, can't see the stars
'Cause there's rain on the water
And this plank in my eyes, got me lookin' for pliers
