Wish You Were Gay (feat. Sean O'Hagan)
"Oh, baby, I don't feel so good", six words you never understood
"I'll never let you go", five words you'll never say, oh
I laugh along like nothing's wrong, four days has never felt so long
If three is a crowd and two was us, one slipped away
And I just want to make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
And I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't want to stay
I just, kind of, wish you were gay
Is there a reason we're not through
Is there a 12-step just for you?
Our conversation's all in blue
11 "heys" (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Ten fingers tearin' out my hair
Nine times you never made it there
I ate alone at seven, you were six minutes away (yeah-yeah-yeah)
How am I supposed to make you feel okay
When all you do is turn and walk the other way?
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
To spare my pride
To give your lack of interest, an explanation
Don't say I'm not your type
Just say I'm not your preferred sexual orientation
Oh, I'm so selfish (yeah, yeah, yeah, selfish)
But you make me feel so helpless
And I can't stand another day
Stand another day
I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay (yeah)
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay
"I'll never let you go", five words you'll never say, oh
I laugh along like nothing's wrong, four days has never felt so long
If three is a crowd and two was us, one slipped away
And I just want to make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
And I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't want to stay
I just, kind of, wish you were gay
Is there a reason we're not through
Is there a 12-step just for you?
Our conversation's all in blue
11 "heys" (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Ten fingers tearin' out my hair
Nine times you never made it there
I ate alone at seven, you were six minutes away (yeah-yeah-yeah)
How am I supposed to make you feel okay
When all you do is turn and walk the other way?
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
To spare my pride
To give your lack of interest, an explanation
Don't say I'm not your type
Just say I'm not your preferred sexual orientation
Oh, I'm so selfish (yeah, yeah, yeah, selfish)
But you make me feel so helpless
And I can't stand another day
Stand another day
I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay (yeah)
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay
