Bonnet Of Pins Lyrics by Matt Berninger

Get Sunk

2025

[Verse 1]
\nIt takes a lot to really disappear
\nAlways leave traces in the leaves
\nNever thought I'd see her here
\nNever thought I'd see her again
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nShe sidewinders through the room to me
\nWith a real cigarette and a Styrofoam coffee
\nShe's still wearing her father's feather jacket
\nShe holds out her hands and I stand to receive her
\nTrying to remember the last time I'd seen her
\nSomehow she looks younger now
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nShe finishes off my drink and
\nPuts on her bonnet of pins and
\nSays I
\nThought I'd find you much quicker than this
\nYou must've thought I didn't exist, poor you
\nI do
\nWe'd better go before your boyfriends cry
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nShe says she takes photos of tractor bones
\nAnd sells 'em to model luxury homes
\nThe closest thing she's ever found to love
\nIs the kind you can't get rid of fast enough
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nShe finishes off my drink and
\nPuts on her bonnet of pins and
\nSays I
\nThought I'd find you much quicker than this
\nYou must've thought I didn't exist, poor you
\nI do
\nWe'd better go before your boyfriends cry
\n
\n[Bridge]
\nTake the stairs to the bottom where the lights are out
\nAnd I'll be there with a lighter and a Nabokov cocktail
\nForget the questionnaires and the oral histories
\nI don't care how many times you almost said you missed me
\nIt's a cup trick shell, it's a puff of smoke
\nAnd it gets me every time, it's a pretty good joke
\nI know that you miss me, I know that you miss me
\nThis stuff takes a lifetime
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nShe finishes off my drink and
\nPuts on her bonnet of pins and
\nSays I
\nThought I'd find you much quicker than this
\nYou must've thought I didn't exist, poor you
\nI do
\nI thought I'd find you much quicker than this
\nYou must've thought I didn't exist, poor you
\nI do
\nWe'd better go before your boyfriends cry\n\n
