lyrics

TRAGEDY
(Szabo/Losee)

you’re the accident that never happens
‘cause you never plan enough
you just hold yourself for ransom and then you pay yourself off

you’re just a baby in a basket on a doorstep out in traffic
you’re gonna need some antiseptic, not just a bandage or an elastic

you’re a tragedy
no big deal
at least you’re being entertained
it’s a tragedy
no big deal
and you don’t do anything … for me

you’re like the pop songs you used to put on
you used to sing along but now you don’t
i guess you used to be a classic but now you’re empty you’re just a habit

you’re a tragedy
no big deal
at least you’re being entertained
it’s a tragedy
no big deal
and you don’t do anything … for me

why can’t you just
meet me at the door
like I’m home
like we use to
we’ll talk about the warm or the cold
like we care
like it matters

an apology you couldn’t manage
you’re not a body
just an appendage

you won’t see me channel surfin’
you’re channel sufferin’
you’re channel sick

you’re a tragedy
no big deal
at least you’re being entertained
it’s a tragedy
no big deal
and you don’t do anything … for me
