'Say Hello Wave Goodbye' to WA
"Take your hands off me, hey,
I don’t belong to you, you see,
And take a look in my face, for the last time,
I never knew you, you never knew me,
Say hello goodbye,
Say hello and wave goodbye,
We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt and me in a suit but it just wasn’t me,
You’re used to wearing less, and now your life’s a mess, so insecure you see,
I put up with all the scenes, this is one scene that’s goin to be played my way
Under the deep red light I can see the make-up slidin down,
Well hey little girl you will always make up so take off that unbecoming frown,
As for me, well I’ll find someone who’s not goin cheap in the sales,
A nice little housewife who’ll give me a steady life and not keep going
off the rails."
I'm done with you, your scene, and your ways. I'm done lying so much, backing down so much to keep the peace with my enemies, though there are still things I'd rather not say it's not to save you from the embaressed silence after abrasive honesty.
I've been carrying your filth on my feet but I'm washing them and sanding down the hard bits. I want to have baby-soft feet that can still feel the difference in the soil of each land. You will no longer be the veil between me and everything. And you will not claim me just because I'm back in bounds.
