lyrics

Hey
Yeah I'm still here
Holdin’ down the fort
When you get back you'll find me
On the floor
Sprawled
Spread all around the room
Like I'll soon
Become the room

“On my way, be there in 5
Walkin’ up, I'm right outside”

To what
Do I owe the pleasure
Of your graceful presence
As you walk all over my old floorboards

“Well it's hard to say but I'll try
I am here to say goodbye”

Well that's no big surprise
I saw it in your eyes
I always knew but I chose not to see the truth

“Hey it's not so cut and dry
Don't you even wonder why?”

Well I think it's safe to assume
You don't want to be with someone who has become a room
And that I have turned you into your very own room
And now you must find someone to walk all over you

This time I'll see it comin’
You can only see up from the bottom
I’ma lay here ‘til I'm rotten
Peel me up when you see me sofen
Leave me naked in the New York sun
I'll be cookin here until I'm done
Me and my room we've become one
I'm just a piece of furniture for you to step on
