Say Nice Things About Detroit Lyrics - Phone Power - They Might Be Giants

I always was the one to leave 

I had no rehersal 

For this role reversal 

Say nice things about Detroit 

The way you left you were a big big jerk 

There I was: anticipating 

Some kind of love 

I'm still waiting 

It's like it was just last week 

I tell myself, but it wasn't 

Dressing up and making plans 

I'm so bad at staying friends 

Say something nice 

Say it again 

Say something nice 

Say it again 

I've never known a liberty 

But you sure were thirsty 

Then it gets all murky 

Say nice things about Detroit 

Remember standing in the doorway 

Private words and holding hands 

Can't you pretend to pretend 

Say nice things about Detroit 

The way you left you were a big big jerk 

There I was: anticipating 

Some kind of love 

I'm still waiting 

Say something nice 

Say it again 

Say something nice 

Say it again 

End
