"Wish You Were Gay" lyrics
Bill Callahan & Bonnie "Prince" Billy Lyrics
"Wish You Were Gay"
(feat. Sean O'Hagan)
(originally by Billie Eilish)
Baby, I don't feel so good
Six words you never understood
I'll never let you go
Five words you'll never say
I laugh along like nothing's wrong
Four days has never felt so long
If three's a crowd and two was us
One slipped away
I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
Is there a reason we're not through?
Is there a twelve step just for you?
Our conversation's all in blue
Eleven "heys" (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Ten fingers tearing out my hair
Nine times you never made it there
I ate alone at seven, you were six minutes away
How am I supposed to make you feel okay
When all you do is walk the other way?
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
To spare my pride
To give your lack of interest an explanation
Don't say, I'm not your type
Just say that I'm not your preferred sexual orientation
I'm so selfish
But you make me feel so helpless, yeah
And I can't stand another day
Stand another day
I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay

Lambchop - "Reservations" How can I convince you it's me I don't like?
Not to be indifferent to the look in your eyes
I've always been distant
And I've always told lies for love
I'm bound by these choices so hard to make
I'm...
Big Thief - "Time Escaping" Cool
Electric waves a rush of energy
Silent river pouring backward eternally
Through the phase and touch of entropy
Old age in the beginner
To hit the stage and blush wild, laughingly
Crush the rage...
Cass McCombs & Angel Olsen - "Don't (Just) Vote" Yo, don't just vote
Your uncle's old saying is still the same:
"If you don't vote, then you can't complain"
But you wonder after all these years:
"Could one vote put a stop to all the tears?"
Tears...
Nick Cave & Warren Ellis - "White Elephant" The white hunter sits on his porch
With his elephant gun and his tears
He'll shoot you for free if you come around here
A protester kneels on the neck of a statue
The statue says "I can't breathe"...
Jeff Tweedy - "Gwendolyn" I don't think I can take another day
Oh I don't know how I could ever say
I'm OK being so far away
Oh I don't think that I can take another day
When Gwendolyn, when she starts to speak
To a county...
