She said, "who answered the phone?
I dont understand, i thought youd be alone
Tonight."
I said, "the girl who lives here,
Said the band could stay if we bought the
Beer."
She said, "i dont like the sound of that,
Tell me what she looks like - thing or fat?"
I said, "uh...i cant really say,
What does it matter anyway?"

I said, "it's good to hear your voice,
I really do miss you but we made the right
Choice."
She said, "i hope you're eating well and
Living here w/o you is living through
Hell."
I said, "...well i may be home early
It'll be a few days till i know for surely"
"shirley! is that her name?
Is she in love and do you feel the same?"
No, i dont feel the same

Chorus:
I cannot find a way to make peace with
You today.
So where will we be tomorrow?

So i busted my ass to make it home and
When i got there - she wasnt alone
She said, "you're home so soon.
I didnt get a chance to clean the room."
I said, "...forget this house...
Road cheese calls both man and mouse."
She said, "dont end it this way.
I really did miss you everyday
...well...almost everyday...in every way."

Chorus
