Lyrics
PITY
You’re pushing papers, pushing far away
You’re crunching numbers on a life with no pay
You thought you’d landed, you were sitting pretty
but girls lose every time, girls in love, what a pity
What a pity, the girl’s in love
The truth around here is you’ll never get ahead
planning dollars and hours until you’re dead
You look around, you’re filled with quiet fury
Slack-jawed and wondering where it all went
You’ve got your skillset and a winning smile
you heard everyone likes you but you’re in denial
and you’d be right, it seems there’s no one to play with
singing songs with yourself on tape, in your parents’ attic
What a pity, the girl’s in love
Be calm and be quiet
be calm and relax
pull out your pen & your book
and record the loose facts of your life
in a song, in a song or two
What a pity, the girl’s in love
What a pity the girl’s in love with song
What a pity, she’s always in love with a song
