Better Than Ezra - Allison Foley Lyrics






"CALMLY, LIKE A RAZOR
I GOT US ON THE DOOR,"
OR "I GOT A TAPE OF 'CLERKS'
SOMEONE LEFT THE NIGHT BEFORE."

SO I GO OVER LATER,
YOU'RE SITTING IN THAT CHAIR
SMOKING ON YOUR CIGARETTE
FINGERING YOU HAIR

SO I GET DRUNK AND STONED,
EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND.

TWENTY-NINE AND AIMLESS
YOU BARTEND DOWN ON FOURTH
YOUR PARENTS PAY INSURANCE
AND THE PARSON'S AUDIT COURSE

OVER-SCHOOLED AND UNINSPIRED
A TRUST FUND UP YOUR NOSE
ALL THAT WASTED TALENT BUT, UH
AIN'T THAT HOW IT ALWAYS GOES?

SO I GET DRUNK AND STONED,
EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND.
YEAH, YEAH YEAH

SO LONG ALISON FOLEY
SO LONG, BYE-BYE

(COME UP HIGHER, TAKE A STEP HIGHER)
SOMETIMES YOU UNDERSTAND
THE REASONS HOW YOU WENT ASTRAY
BUT LEAST OF ALL THE ANSWER,
THAT IT HURTS TO WATCH YOU WASTE AWAY.

SO I GET DRUNK AND STONED,
EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND.
YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.

SO LONG, ALISON FOLEY
SO LONG, BYE-BYE

    Over-schooled and uninspired, trust fund up your nose
    All that wasted talent, but uh, ain't that how it always goes? So, I get drunk and stoned, every time you come around
    Yeah yeah yeah...

  2. T.... D....

    I want to hear the 5.1 mix of this!!!

  3. p.... ....

    It's a crime that Better Than Ezra's album 'How Does Your Garden Grow?' did not get more attention when it came out back in 1998.  I was fortunate enough to get my hands on it in high school and it was probably one of my most worn out CDs due to overplay.  It is one of the tightest Alternative Rock albums to have come out from that decade. (dropped @ www.trackdrops.com)

    This is one of my favourites by them. I agree that the album is criminally underrated. I feel it's their best, without a shadow of a doubt.

  5. l.... l....

    Great song of them. When I look back past years, one of the best songs of 90s.
