lyrics

I wait, anxious, outside the Museum of Bad Breakfast
The sky is earl gray I am nervier than I expect
A note prompted me to be here punctually
She had danger in her eyes that I never would suspect

My coffee’s growing cold
Scribbled notes on napkin folds
What’s worse than bad breakfast?

I lounge lugubriously in the lobby
But fail to notice the sleeping pills in my omelet
For foreboding’s sake I’ll forgo from foreseeing
How I’ll wake up starving as I break into a sweat

My coffee’s growing cold
These suspicions have taken hold
I feel worse than bad breakfast

I can’t wait to live somewhere with carpet
These splinters in my shoes are ripping skin
She smiles at me as I wish I could protect them
I close my eyes to prevent her points from poking in

My coffee’s growing cold
And I can’t do as I’m told
She’s worse than bad breakfast

I skim the skin off my coffee as I’m waiting
A perfect stranger drops a parcel while passing by
The contents are curious I grab my notebook
The ink is inching slowly towards the corner of my eye

My coffee’s growing cold
I write my secrets down in bold
This job is worse than bad breakfast
