Bet you were expecting a love song
You write so many for me
But I have a serious question
So answer me seriously
If I were infected with rabies
While trying to save the raccoons
Would you give me one last kiss?
With a piece of Saran wrap pressed up to your lips?
My cat, he lived to be 90
We buried him under the cedar tree
That tree, it began to grow flowers
The smell was exactly like how you speak to me
Things are beautiful
Love is distracting, but it's all that we've got
Things are beautiful
Things are beautiful
Well Jesus he called from a pay phone
To get out the thoughts crowding up in his head.
But soon he had run out of quarters
And just before the line went dead, he said:
"Things are beautiful.
Yeah, life's a little shitty but I'm doing my best"
Things are beautiful
Things are beautiful
