La La Lie

Jack's Mannequin

Guess what I'm done

Writing you songs

You'll give up your job at the bank

Proving money's not fun when you're gone

So this is the first verse

It's not very long

But I'm ready to move on

Guess what I'm done

Writing your book

The ending got twisted around

But for all the hell that it took

The electrical wires

They'll hum in the walls

In the room that I rent now without you

I've got friends who

La La Lie

Will help me pull through

La La Lie

La La La Lie

The spaceman that can't get high

I'm coming back to my girl by July

Yeah yeah yeah

That's right

So guess what I'm done

Drawing your pictures

I'm dulling the day with a drink

In a parking garage by the theatre

We met for a movie

Every scene was a sign

We made out through their meaning

Well I've got friends who

La La Lie

Will help me pull through

La La Lie

La La La Lie

The spaceman that can't get high

I'm coming back to my girl by July

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Guess what I'm done

Writing you songs

I'm far too unstable to settle

I doubt that the doctors are wrong

So I'll wait by a palm tree, a palm tree, a palm tree

Well I've got friends

La La Lie

To help me pull through

La La Lie

La La La Lie

The spaceman that can't get high

I'm coming back to my girl by July

Well I've got friends who

La La Lie

Will help me pull through

La La Lie

This song for a long goodbye

I'm coming back

I'm coming back to my girl

Back to my girl

This song for a long goodbye

I'm coming back to my girl by July
