Domestic Affairs Lyrics by The Darters

2024

[Verse 1]
The christian kids and homeless are hangin' downtown
Both of them are starting to freak you out
Neither seems to help the other round
At least not as much as you'd think
You read enough books to make 'em think you've read more
You're a story-stealing, easy bleeding, Seventh Ave Lord
You think that you'd help her find the door
If you really wanted out
[Chorus]
And I don't know why you miss her when you spent all our time with her
I don't know if you're in love, but you're sure into something
And I doubt you'll fess up to how damn wеll you messed it up
You just walk around til you come down from thе next best thing to the time before
[Verse 2]
All the hometown hippies and week-a-year itchies
Aren't any more wise than they are pretty
But are you any different, really?
Where you are, doesn't care where you've been
A city full of people dodgin' eyes of the homeless
Except for a preacher, cop, and tourist
And the best that you can do is a
Cup of not enough change
[Chorus]
And I don't know why you miss her when you spent all our time with her
I don't know if you're in love, but you're sure into something
And I doubt you'll fess up to how damn well you messed it up
You just walk around til you come down from the next best thing to the time before
[Verse 3]
You crucify Christ six days a week, and everyone else on the seventh
Other than Mrs. Robinson down the street, your curiosities have left
Never met a sin medicine couldn't fix, but you're just starting to notice
That in the best and worst moments, life isn't something you'd really miss
[Outro]
Ah oh, oh
Ah oh, oh
Ah oh, oh, oh, oh
