lyrics

In the morning hours she wakes me just to tell me that I have her all my own
And I don't doubt that she's sincere
I said come on over here
Flip that record we'll just dance on our own, getting stoned
We pay for all our bills with all your money
Cause no one ever should say love is free
I wanna argue about the names of our children and the space we could afford if it was her and you and me, just us three

And I don't care if you hyphenate our last name like its total anarchy
Making love on the honey moon screaming burn down the patriarchy
Live like San Francisco liberals
We're dressed like communists in Berkeley
I said how'd you ever fall for me?

You make me ashamed of my record collection
It makes me nervous that you've read more books than me
And you hate the way I drive but don't mind sitting by my side
You said my music's for the bourgeois
I guess I agree
I hate the way you purse your lips when you kiss me
Oh but kissing's not the reason that I stay
Its the way you're unafraid
Its all the things that you said
I could love you till my dying day
Oh won't you stay?

And I don't care if keep your own last name like its total anarchy
Making love on the honey moon screaming burn down the patriarchy
Live like San Francisco liberals
We're dressed like communists in Berkeley
I said how'd you ever fall for me?

People are selfish and they suck and then you die
But you're not like that and that's so hard to find
But you leave your laundry on my pillow and I don't know why
But its all lacy so I guess that I don't mind

and hell, I would take your last name like its total anarchy
Making love on the honey moon screaming burn down the patriarchy
Live like San Francisco liberals
We're dressed like communists in Berkeley
I said how'd you ever fall for me?
