Chinese Food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Twenty-two and just out of college
Paying rent on an apartment where I didn't eat or sleep
Cause I was sleeping with you every afternoon
And staying up all night over a tray of crab rangoons
And yeah the sex was great
But it was just one part of the heaven that was our love
The sex was great
But for some reason I keep thinking of
Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
The core ingredients of our love affair
It got complicated but when you peel back all the layers
It was all about Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
What's my line and General Tso's chicken
Splitting a sampler platter, rolling our eyes at this week's villain
Then came lo mein and the dawn that nobody acknowledged
The hours never mattered cause there was a deep spell upon us
I thought I could do it alone
But it only left me with a sick sensation inside
I went it alone
Just so God would know I tried
Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
And both of those things were better when you were there
It didn't work out because I thought I was some kind of player
Now I'm dwelling on Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
And just like Buffy you were strong and feminine too
And just like Angel I got jealous every time that Spike was in view
And just like Xander and Willow you believed in me despite my issues
And just like sweet and sour sauce you were sweet but not without some attitude
And just like the first season you were hard to get into
And just like a broken heart you were hard to get into
And just like the music industry you were hard to get into
And I lived that dream, I was there
Yeah you loved me but I didn't care
I let you go, how did I dare
All I had to do was let that dream continue
Seven years and I'm still thinking about you
Time has weathered my skin but never my memory
Other women have come and gone like the seasons
Still I long for a chance to love you once more with feeling
Yeah the sex was great
I guess I'm paying the price for those moments of true happiness
The sex was great
Especially when afterward we'd order a plate
Of Chinese food and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer
No dinner and a movie combo compares
With our show on TV and a cookie to be our soothsayer
I hope my fortune tells of Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Oh God oh Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
And the girl I loved running her fingers through my hair
I had some demons and unfortunately they betrayed her
But I'll never forget Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
As long as I live
Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
The simple pleasures of life that were made to be shared
I wanna go back but God doesn't grant that kind of prayer
So I'll just dream about Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Paying rent on an apartment where I didn't eat or sleep
Cause I was sleeping with you every afternoon
And staying up all night over a tray of crab rangoons
And yeah the sex was great
But it was just one part of the heaven that was our love
The sex was great
But for some reason I keep thinking of
Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
