[Verse 1]
In my dusty house, in my dirty clothes
Seated in a town on the verge of extinction
Struggling with a tune alone I compose
A bittersweet ditty about an ex-girlfriend
[Chorus 1]
So why bother with painful memories?
Why tear out my heart for all the world to see?
Why not paint by number, catchy melody?
Burn it up the charts with sweet simplicity
Then do it again
[Verse 2]
Gotta get away, maybe we should stay
Seated in a town on the verge of explosion
New York and LA, no one listening anyway
Busy predicting the next big thing
[Chorus 2]
So why bother with changing scenery?
Why pack up the car and move to California?
Why not paint by number, catchy melody?
Playing all the parts in deadly harmony
Then do it again
In my dusty house, in my dirty clothes
Seated in a town on the verge of extinction
Struggling with a tune alone I compose
A bittersweet ditty about an ex-girlfriend
[Chorus 1]
So why bother with painful memories?
Why tear out my heart for all the world to see?
Why not paint by number, catchy melody?
Burn it up the charts with sweet simplicity
Then do it again
[Verse 2]
Gotta get away, maybe we should stay
Seated in a town on the verge of explosion
New York and LA, no one listening anyway
Busy predicting the next big thing
[Chorus 2]
So why bother with changing scenery?
Why pack up the car and move to California?
Why not paint by number, catchy melody?
Playing all the parts in deadly harmony
Then do it again
