The Party - St. Vincent

[00:00.30]Honey, the party, you went away quickly
[00:06.57]But oh, that's the trouble with ticking and talking
[00:13.60]I lick the ice cube from your empty glass
[00:19.81]Oh, we've stayed much too late
[00:22.90]Till they're cleaning the ashtrays
[00:27.43]
[00:41.33]Do you have change or a button or cash?
[00:46.84]Oh, my pockets hang out like two surrender flags
[00:53.62]Oh, but I'd pay anything to keep my conscience clean
[01:01.07]I'm keeping my eye on the exit sign, steady now
[01:08.14]
[01:42.56]How did we get here?
[01:45.63]With creaks in these chairs
[01:48.67]Oh, there aren't enough hands to point all the fingers
[01:55.72]But I sit transfixed by a hole in your tee shirt
[02:02.56]Oh, I've said much too much and they're trying to sweep up
[02:10.54]
[04:05.03]
