[Verse 1]

Somewhere in the village, you're a star

Something's feeling different

I'll pretend I don't remember

What it's like when you're around

Why I asked you to get out

Of California and you did

[Chorus]

You're a thumbtack in my side

A dog bite

You distract

From what's worse, so I will let you

Keep a ball chain on my leg

Keep fucking with my head

'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

[Verse 2]

Somewhere in the village at a bar

You lie about the business

To someone who won't remember

What it's like whеn you’re around

Why I asked you to get out

Of my apartmеnt

And you left

[Chorus]

You're a thumbtack in my side

A dog bite

You distract

From what's worse so I will let you

Keep a ball chain on my leg

Keep fucking with my head

'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

[Verse 3]

"Laura" by Bat For Lashes played on the comedown

When you get drunk you get nice

So I will be your shadow

Take me to Hell and then

Keep me out of my own mind

[Verse 4]

'Cause letting you in my head

Is easier than my obsession

You're not even a good friend

But I'll let you act like that's the problem

[Chorus]

A thumbtack in my side

A dog bite

You distract

From what's worse so I will let you

Keep a ball chain on my leg

Keep fucking with my head

'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

[Outro]

Ah-ah

Ah-ah
