Alice Childress - Kcrw Lyrics - Ben Folds Five

Some summers in the evening after six or so 

I walk on down the hill and may be buy a beer 

I think about my friends, sometimes I wish they lived out here 

But they wouldn't dig this town, no they wouldn't dig this town 

Try not to think about it, Alice Childress 

Try not to think about it anymore 

Try not to think about it, Alice Childress 

Anymore, no not anymore, no 

Alice the world is full of ugly things that you can't change 

Pretend it's not that way, that's my idea of faith 

You can blow it off and say there's good in nearly everyone 

Just give them all a chance, just give them all a chance 

Try not to think about it, Alice Childress 

Try not to think about it anymore 

Try not to think about it, Alice Childress 

Anymore, no not anymore 

No it didn't work out, no it didn't work out 

The way we thought it would, no it didn't work out 

An arranged marriage is not so good 

Thank God it's you, you know your timing is impeccable 

I'm not fooling you, I don't know what to do 

Some dude just knocked me cold and left me on the sidewalk 

Took everything I had, everything I had 

Try not to thing about it, Alice Childress 

Try not to think about it anymore 

It's getting light where you are, Alice Childress 

Anymore, no not anymore, anymore, no not anymore
