Lyrics The National

The National

Baby, We'll Be Fine

All night I lay on my pillow and pray

For my boss to stop me in the hallway

Lay my head on his shoulder and say

"Son, I've been hearing good things"

I wake up without warning

And go flying around the house

In my savignon fierce, freaking out

Take a forty-five minute shower and kiss the mirror

Say "Look at me

Baby, we'll be fine

All we gotta do is be brave and be kind"

I put on an argyle sweater and put on a smile

I don't know how to do this

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

Baby, come over, I need entertaining

I had a stilted, pretending day

Lay me down and say something pretty

Lay me back down where I wanted to stay

Just say something perfect, something I can steal

Say "Look at me

Baby, we'll be fine

All we gotta do is be brave and be kind"

I pull off your jeans and you spill jack and coke in my collar

I melt like a witch and scream

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything

I'm so sorry for everything
