"Medium Machine" lyrics

"Medium Machine"

Susie's sleeping
Simon says
Monday boredom
Sure beats
Sunday dread
And you're still sleeping
I'm writing my stupid little songs
Pirate Peter
Puts the jockstrap record on

And I can change the way I talk
And I can change the way I dress
I could try to write a love song
If I thought you'd be impressed
You know I care you're getting better
And I care about your friends
I care about your brother
And I care about your pets
But I don't care if you love me
I don't care if you tell me you love me
I don't care if you want me to love you
I don't care if you hear me

Awkward silence
Then an awkward laugh
Fancy cocktails
With the usual twats
It's an open secret
But I mean it just the same
And no one ever cried because
They didn't get to lie enough

And I can tell you when I'm trying
I can tell you when I'm stressed
I could try to write a love song
If I thought you'd be impressed
You know I care you're getting better
And I care about your friends
I care about your family
And I care about your ex
But I don't care if you love me
I don't care if you tell me you love me
I don't care if you want me to love you
I don't care if you hear me
