Mediocre Mile
Franklin was a drifter
Cause he was shit with money
Carried a guitar case full of laundry
Couldn't carry a tune
Hannah was a waitress
From the land of milk and honey
But she took her coffee black and let her sting dull too soon
Charter members of the rank and file
Lining that crowded stretch called Mediocre Mile
Mediocre Mile
Frank's father told him whisky
Would make him manly, would put hair on his chest
So he dates a lot of barmaids
And his torso looks just like a sweater vest
Hannah's mother warned her about men like Franklin
Time and time again
But Hannah had a weak spot for the way a bastard bothers to pretend
Charter members of the rank and file
Lining that crowded stretch called Mediocre Mile
Mediocre Mile
Wasn't a romance for the ages
The sex was hardly worth the sweat
A coffee stain on history's pages
A night they were both willing to forget
Franklin was a drifter
Cause he was good for nothing
Carried contraceptives in his wallet
Till they left a faded ring
Hannah didn't bother calling
She'd assumed that he was bluffing
When he told her he'd be back this way come the spring
Charter members of the rank and file
Lining that crowded stretch called Mediocre Mile
Mediocre Mile
Cause he was shit with money
Carried a guitar case full of laundry
Couldn't carry a tune
Hannah was a waitress
From the land of milk and honey
But she took her coffee black and let her sting dull too soon
Charter members of the rank and file
Lining that crowded stretch called Mediocre Mile
Mediocre Mile
Frank's father told him whisky
Would make him manly, would put hair on his chest
So he dates a lot of barmaids
And his torso looks just like a sweater vest
Hannah's mother warned her about men like Franklin
Time and time again
But Hannah had a weak spot for the way a bastard bothers to pretend
Charter members of the rank and file
Lining that crowded stretch called Mediocre Mile
Mediocre Mile
Wasn't a romance for the ages
The sex was hardly worth the sweat
A coffee stain on history's pages
A night they were both willing to forget
Franklin was a drifter
Cause he was good for nothing
Carried contraceptives in his wallet
Till they left a faded ring
Hannah didn't bother calling
She'd assumed that he was bluffing
When he told her he'd be back this way come the spring
Charter members of the rank and file
Lining that crowded stretch called Mediocre Mile
Mediocre Mile
