See You Around

I'm sorry for my lack of communication

but as I'm staring out this fifth floor window

it seems like the least amount of communication the better

oh, well what am I supposed to say

"there's a bloody effigy on my wall

and the complimentary carnation is falling apart"

and I ain't got time for the niceties

or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around

I will see you around

see you around

see you around

well I must admit I'm flattered by your consecration

It's a mind-numbing spine-chilling

but never-the-less heartwarming gesture

but as you make your advances so clumsily

I'll save us both the both the hassle and leave

and hang out all night

in the familiar fluorescent light of Dunkin' Donuts

'cause I ain't got time for the niceties

or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around

see you around

see you around

see you around

well, how are you with issues

lately you've been a half-assed activist

you've been seen sashaying around the picket line

wearing scarcely any sign

oh, but always vocal in love and strife

and the politics of your all important life

well, I'm sorry but your routine is coming off a bit ragged

and I ain't got time for the niceties

or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around

I'll see you around

see you around ...

I'll see you around ...
