Wishing For Contentment Lyrics - Andrew Bird's Bowl Of Fire

Well, you know sometimes 

I find myself 

 

Wishing for contentment 

Hoping for relentment 

Venting my resentment 

On the happy few, on the happy few, yeah 

 

Awaiting resolution 

And dreams of restitution 

But finding retribution 

Is just another thing to do 

 

'Cause you've got to keep yourself busy 

Visit aunt Lizzy 

Just see how she's been 

 

But when you're making a late run 

Two judgmental matrons retort 

See what I mean? 

 

A seeming reprobation 

Perhaps, it's my vocation 

Oh, nauseous elation 

Comes to mind but fades so soon, ah 

 

Wishing for contentment 

Hoping for relentment 

Venting my resentment 

On the happy few 

 

Yes, I'm awaiting resolution 

And dreams of restitution, restitution 

Finding retribution 

Is just another thing 

 

You've got to keep yourself busy 

Visit aunt Lizzy 

Just see how she's been 

 

But when you're making a late run 

Two judgmental matrons retort 

See what I mean? 

 

A seeming reprobation 

Perhaps, it's my vocation 

Oh, nauseous elation 

Comes to mind but fades so soon 

 

It fades so soon 

It fades so soon
