I feel like a cat pulling strings Think I unraveled my mind I dropped a mouse into the sink just to watch it climb out Then took it to the woods and said you're free You'll be living like this for awhile now You're free For awhile now at least You say cupid, I say comet You say wallace, I say gromit You brought it back when I said You promised to just call the whole thing off, please You stay needy, I stay friendless You stay pristine, I stay pretentious We'd get married but it's too expensive Let's call the whole thing off, please Oh my God This ain't a happening to me And it's all your fault Said by popular decree Possum queen by law, she's been building up estates in East LA Is this your first time? That's sweet Say "hello" to looking-forward for me If I could set your mind at ease This will last forever And when it doesn't, love it for what it is Don't miss it the way I do The way I used to If you love it, love it for what it's been Don't miss it Don't wish it back Don't wish it'd last 'cause if it doesn't Love it for what it is Don't miss it the way I do Don't miss it Don't miss it the way I miss you
