Good Listener Songtext
Good Listener
To see a friendship end is worse than death
'cause your ex-friend still lives.
She comes from the west bringing nothing but regrets
and cheap gifts from Union Station?
and a smoker's complexion.
I don't feel like saying, "hello" but I open the door
leading us out to fresh fallen snow.
Where she'll go I'll never know.
If only she'd walk up to the wrong car (thinking it was mine)
and somehow someone would offer her a ride
then I'd be free of her
Free to think more about me.
You're a good listener
if that is what you're doing
'cause you just sit there looking stupid
as I slowly self-destruct.
You're a good listener
I guess that's what you're doing
'cause you just sit there looking stupid
As I slowly self-destruct.
You must be what they call a "good listener"
'cause you will not open your mouth - cause you're too goddamn dumb.
As I slowly self-destruct.
You're one of those good listener's, aren't you?
'Cause all you do is sit there blinking like an idiot.
As I slowly self-destruct.
You're worthless to me; you're worthless to me.
You worthless, you worthless, you worthless
You idiot!
As I slowly self-destruct.
