Koi / Blessed Firstborn
Could caller ID pick up your crooked teeth
Lonely hearts, body parts
And your obligatory TV screen
Would anything be enough to change your mind
Overbites and the late night fights
And the mandatory marry me
In a passer-by terrible notions fill your eyes
Bloodlust and soon-to-be severed ties
You reckon you're making decisions lately based on a new hate for me
How that's true though I can't really see
Because you soon asked me to call
And of course i'll call, blessed firstborn
Will you be defined by your clothes and motives?
Split jeans and body thieves
And the unforgiving reverie
When you're found out, will you take me down too
Cut hands and swollen glands
And the final "you are dead to me"
In a passer-by terrible notions fill your eyes
Bloodlust and soon-to-be severed ties
You reckon you're making decisions lately based on a new hate for me
How that's true though I can't really see
Because you soon asked me to call
And of course i'll call, blessed firstborn
I've got a list of notes, words and phrases
And a system to decide what your new name is
But apart from a state funeral and koi carp
I've really nothing left to give you when you depart
In a passer-by terrible notions fill your eyes
Bloodlust and soon-to-be severed ties
You reckon you're making decisions lately based on a new hate for me
How that's true though I can't really see
Because you soon asked me to call
And of course i'll call, blessed firstborn
Lonely hearts, body parts
And your obligatory TV screen
Would anything be enough to change your mind
Overbites and the late night fights
And the mandatory marry me
In a passer-by terrible notions fill your eyes
Bloodlust and soon-to-be severed ties
You reckon you're making decisions lately based on a new hate for me
How that's true though I can't really see
Because you soon asked me to call
And of course i'll call, blessed firstborn
Will you be defined by your clothes and motives?
Split jeans and body thieves
And the unforgiving reverie
When you're found out, will you take me down too
Cut hands and swollen glands
And the final "you are dead to me"
In a passer-by terrible notions fill your eyes
Bloodlust and soon-to-be severed ties
You reckon you're making decisions lately based on a new hate for me
How that's true though I can't really see
Because you soon asked me to call
And of course i'll call, blessed firstborn
I've got a list of notes, words and phrases
And a system to decide what your new name is
But apart from a state funeral and koi carp
I've really nothing left to give you when you depart
In a passer-by terrible notions fill your eyes
Bloodlust and soon-to-be severed ties
You reckon you're making decisions lately based on a new hate for me
How that's true though I can't really see
Because you soon asked me to call
And of course i'll call, blessed firstborn
