It’s Not Funny Lyrics by The Teeth (Philadelphia)

You’re My Lover Now

2007

[Verse 1]
These hands are shaking like two blocks of wood
If I was dead, they’d still be good
For setting up a weathervane
To point the direction from which it came
For setting up a box to put a body
Well it’s alone again, it’s on the ground
I stack ‘em up and I put ‘em down
And when I’m done I’ll pay the check
And wipe the sweat off of my neck
And my nose is red from crying, but it's not funny
[Verse 2]
Oh last night I had a dream that I shot a crow, and when I woke up I wish that I had
‘Cause the last few weeks I’ve been living so low, and my prosperity, it was so sad
And when I saw that little bird laying there, I was miles and miles away
I had the world in the palm of my hand, and it's not funny
[Bridge]
Oh, and you was like my mama
And I only wanted to be looked after
But I didn’t know that you wanted it too
Oh, I would have killed enough for the both of us:
One for me and one for you
Oh!
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
And it goes over, and over I was standing in the bar
And the girl sitting next to me said, “I know who you are
You was here last week, you were sneezing in the sink
I was praying that your teardrops wouldn't end up in my drink”
And I said, “Well all right, but do you remember when
How we used to kiss each other’s throats!”
She dropped a penny into my coke, and it’s not funny (Bones grow)
[Bridge]
It’s not funny (Hair grows)
Oh, it’s not funny (Rain fall)
No, it’s not funny! (Rainbow)
Oh it’s not
[Outro]
Our love
Sweet love
Old love
That’s enough
Bones grow
Hair grows
Rain falls
Rainbow
Bones grow
Hair grows
Rain falls
Rainbow
