you don't wanna know
take my word
there's a lot I could say
[here's the story]

We met through a friend
things were good
up until yesterday
[here's the story]

You might want to grab a cigarette
I need to talk to someone before I forget
Just be thankful
that you don't even know her
dude, I've barely started and now lunch is over

She don't give a damn
and man,
there's a lot on my plate
[here's the story]
there's the girl that I lost
big bills
and a job that I hate
[here's the story]

you might know this story
you've been through the wars
it might seem like you've heard this all before
just be thankful that she lives
two towns over
here's the part you won't believe
lean in closer

you might know this story
you've told it yourself
you've been on my side as you've plied someone else
just be thankful your head is not still spinning
dude, I've lost my place
can I start at the beginning?
