I lay by the pool with a shirt over my face

Listening to her talk about her day

She said, "Look at me, what do you see?

I tried to lose some weight

It's not the way my body looks that I can't stand

It's the sound my footsteps make"

And she hadn't eaten at all that day

But if she did she threw it up anyway

I looked at her through the cloth

And almost let it slip that I was running off

To Bethlehem, Bethlehem

She bit her lip, she answered her telephone

That son of a bitch will never leave that girl alone

I said, "I'm leaving and I don't know when I'll return"

I said, "I condemn you to the pits of hell where you shall burn"

But she was talking to the coolest kid in school

So I took off my bathing suit and I jumped in the pool

To Antarctica or Neptune or whatever

Can we get that played back?
