5 Years Lyrics - Singles - Kimya Dawson

i imagined nick valensi wrapped his long, long arms around me 

and they went around my body almost seven times 

he said "baby i've been thinking and i think i will quit drinking 

and i think on my next birthday i'll turn thirty five 

and i will settle down with you, we'll make sweet love the whole night through 

you'll convert into a jew, sit shiva for your former life" 

and i said "nick although you're handsome, i'll hold out for isaac hanson, 

and he'll get his braces back when i become his wife" 

me and hanson will go dancing, me and hanson true romance 

me and hanson take a chance, lock the door it's party time 

all our babies will be born november seventeenth i'm sure 

and we'll get a cookiepuss from the local carvel store 

then our brothers will come over for a big game of red rover 

everybody holding hands, break the chain, break the chain 

what would i do when you've had a few? 

oh would i stay or go away? 

would you grieve if i chose to leave? 

what would you say if i was in pain? 

last night sergio valenti customized some denim for me 

special for my special shape, they fit me perfectly 

now i've got this new ensemble, certain circles i'm a bombshell 

but a guardian anglo keeps saying "negro please" 

pay attention and you'll notice one man's chops is one man's bloatus 

one man's taint is one man's choad is one man's mr. clean 

and every scene i've ever seen becomes a tootsie roll to me 

a little tasteless waxy turd that gets stuck in my teeth 

and everywhere i try to go the cars are moving much to slow 

i said "excuse me mr. johnson" he said "call me beau" 

"i think this is my biggest fear, the road before me is unclear" 

he said "close your eyes my child and let the old man steer" 

i said "oh, thanks anyway, what would fenton lawless say?" 

five years in the saddle and i've gotta take the reins 

what would i do when you've had a few? 

oh would i stay or go away? 

would you grieve if i chose to leave? 

what would you say if i was in pain?
