Jeff’s lament lyrics
by The Narcissist Cookbook
[Verse 1]
When you got kicked out of your parents' house
And you needed someone to bail you out
Who did you call?
Who did you call?
When you lost your job and you needed cash
Just to pay the rent, no questions asked
Who did you call?
Who did you call?
And now the world is ending, and
Who'd you call? Your new girlfriend
[Chorus]
I mean Jesus Christ man
I've known you since we were five
When we were hardly even people
Still brand new and barely alive
And I'm not asking for a lot
I never did, so why start now?
It just seems to me that when you need something's
The only timе you want me around
Yeah, it seems to me that whеn you need something's
The only time you want me around
[Verse 2]
When you fell asleep on my sofa bed
All curled up head laying on my chest
And I didn't move though my arms went numb
And you felt ashamed of yourself next day
And you needed someone to take it out on, oh well
Who did you call?
[Chorus]
I mean Jesus Christ man
There are words we never say
'Til you get high and I get desperate
And we wake up like nothing's changed
And I'm not asking for a lot
I never did, so why start now?
It just seems to me that when you need something is
The only time you want me around
Yeah, it seems to me that when you need something is the only time you want me around
