Kelly Was a Philistine Lyrics by R. Missing

Unsummering

2017

[Verse 1]
She's not on the playground
Been missing for days
She's going away now
It's obvious
This is her serious phase
I found her face down
Looking up at space
She's going away now
Her eyes are closed
Today won't be the day
[Chorus]
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
[Verse 2]
Our acquaintance was pleasant
Right 'til the end
But she's going away now
Is she ready?
She nodded her head
There's no going back
This is for good
One return ticket in her pocket
She misunderstood
[Chorus]
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
Kelly was a philistine the last time we met
So why are we getting along?
Why are we getting along?
She's not ready
She's not ready yet
