Lyrics The Matches

The Matches

What Katie Said

Of a face full of words you'd think a few would be right (right)

and with a few tips of courage you'd think my lips less tight (right)

shattered passenger window beside itself on the floor

they can take my stereo, but you can't take me for a kid anymore

I'm going back to your house,

back from the dead

why can't I forget what Katie said?

you've got standards, girl,

what the hell are you doing with me?

STD pay phone hanging off my face

your roomie's got me on hold,

damn, why am I such a disgrace?

with a fist full of change and absolutely no sense

what little I've learned about love is at my pride's expense

I'm going back to your house,

back from the dead

why can't I forget what Katie said?

you've got standards, girl,

what the hell are you doing with me?

I'm going back to your house,

back from the dead

why can't I forget what Katie said?

you've got standards, girl,

what the hell are you doing with me?

You always know the latest place to be

with your waved-at friends and your waved-at fees

your neon eyes blinking vacancy, baby, baby

you've always been the latest thing to be

with your guest list girls and their listless pleas

hear hear, three cheers for your apathy

I'm going back to your house,

back from the dead

why can't I forget what Katie said?

you've got standards, girl,

what the hell are you doing with me?

I'm going back to your house,

back from the dead

maybe I'll forget what Katie said?

you've got standards, girl,

what the hell are you doing with me?

Yeah, what the hell are you doing with me?

what's a decent girl doing with me?
