Miss Halfway

You oughta hear the mirror in my house

You oughta fear her pretty, pretty mouth

Says I'm imperfect in every way:

Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway

All my friends in L.A. got jobs on Melrose Place

I play Replacements songs and sigh-- a Waitress In The Sky

You oughta hear the things I've been thinking

You oughta swim in a heart that is sinking

You try to break me with all the things you say:

Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway

Tony makes 60 K, invests in IRA's,

But I'm busy making paper airplanes out of resumes

But I'm gonna burn, I'm gonna shine and multiply

I'm gonna fill up the great divide

You'll never break me with all the things you say

Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway

I'm gonna burn a pie now and then

And I'm gonna say the wrong things to your friends

I'm gonna burn and shine and multiply

And when I do, you're gonna see me in her eyes

I'm gonna burn and shine and multiply

I'm gonna fill up the great divide

You'll never break me with all the things you say

Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway

Miss Almost, Miss Maybe, Miss Halfway

Miss Halfway, Miss Halfway, Miss Halfway
