Courtesy Laughs

I had a fever to empty your closet

I didn't think it would be that hard

You get to do what you want now, see

Though we'll always have to do it apartSee, I'm gonna scream 100,000 words

Now that your fever is long gone

Your wishes I couldn't tell

I don't hear you talking but pretendingI said, ain't that enough courtesy laughs?I read my future in a fortune cookie

Without any safety procedure in mind

All of your things in the main hall

You told me to get rid of them soSold an ugly necklace uptown

I found out it was Egyptian

I tied up your letters

Buried them all with delectationSaid, ain't that enough courtesy laughs? OhI hate that kind of wrong affection

I ain't ready to talk at all

It's all lies, misunderstandings

I'm all alone in the main hallI hate that kind of wrong affection

I ain't ready to talk at all

It's all lies, misunderstandings

I'm all alone in the main hallI'm gonna read every novel you read

I'm gonna learn what's Egyptian

Pretend not to talk too much to

Sacrifice all of my agendaI had a fever to empty your closet

I didn't think it would be that hard

You get to do what you want now, see

Though we'll always have to do it apartAin't that enough courtesy laughs? OhI hate that kind of wrong affection

I ain't ready to talk at all

It's all lies, misunderstandings

I'm all alone in the main hallI hate that kind of wrong affection

I ain't ready to talk at all

It's all lies, misunderstandings

I'm all alone in the main hall, ooh
