The Birthday Party - The 1975

Hello
There's a place
I've been going

There's a place I've been going

Now I'm clean
It would seem
Let's go somewhere I'll be seen
As sad as it seems
I seen Greg and he was like

"I seen your friends at the birthday party, they
Were kinda fucked up before it even started, they
Were gonna go to the Pinegrove show
They didn't know about all the weird stuff, so they just left it" (So they just left it)
I was wasted (I was wasted)
And cold
Minding my business
Then I seen the girls and they were all like

"Do you wanna come and get fucked up?"
I listen
I got myself a missus, so there can't be any kissing
"No, don't be a fridge, you better wise up, kid
It's all Adderall now, it doesn't make you wanna do it"

"This ain't going well"
I thought that I was stuck in Hell
In a boring conversation with a girl called Mel
About her friend in Cincinnati called Matty as well

You pulled away when I went in for the kiss
No, it wasn't a diss
You put the tap on to cover up the sound of your piss
After four years, don't you think I'm over all this?

"That's rich from a man who can't shit
In a hotel room he's gotta share for a bit"
You make a little hobby out of going to the lobby to get things that they don't have

Does it go through ya
When I'm talking to ya?
You know that I could sue ya if we're married and you fuck up again

Impress myself
With stealth and bad health and my wealth
And progressive causes

Drink your kombucha
And buy an Ed Ruscha
Surely, it's a print 'cause I'm not made of it
Look, the fucking state of it

I came pretty late to it
We can still be mates 'cause it's
Only a picture

All your friends
In one place

Oh, we're a scene
Whatever that means
I depen
On my friends
To stay clean
As sad as it seems
As sad as it seems

As sad as it seems
