Grinderman Decoration Day
I've heard you explain this to me before how I'm not your favorite lover I got this feeling you're gonna tell me all about it some more Why won't you be so kind as to wake me when it's over I'm not your favorite lover Wake me when it's over I'm not your favorite lover
I guess we raised our expectations a little high And anyway our beginnings never know our ends Maybe if you just had walked on by I might have met you somewhere down the road and we might've become friends I'm not your favorite lover I'm not your favorite lover
Now all the flags they are flying And all the drummers are marching on their way And the soldiers pray for the dead and the dying As they decorate their graves
I saw you standing there on decoration day You where a revelation I thought you might recognize me and say something but you walked right on by and didn't say nothing I saw you standing there on decoration day You where an inspiration And I could not think of a single word to say When you turned around and smiled and asked me for directions
I'm not your favorite lover I' m not your favorite lover Wake me when it's over Not your favorite lover
