ben folds - exhausting lover lyrics

[verse 1]
i woke up in a truck stop parking lot
a girl in a red white and blue halter top was staring
thick glasses like mine
and a low bored monotone vocal fry (i like that)
she said, who’s the band on the bus? (what bus?)
that one, nerd. the one that you got off of
oh + probably no one you’ve heard of

[pre+chorus]
don’t know what came over me
as i awkwardly dropped my room key
i said i think that’s yours
and three hours later i was banging this verse out

[chorus]
oh no + head meet floor
i don’t wanna do this no more
every kiss is a jam band solo
never gonna say yolo no mo’
my mind says no
my body says h+ll no
let this be over
exhausting lover

[verse 2]
not sure if she couldn’t stop
or if she wouldn’t stop
as the motel carpet gave me five more raw spots
what’s that stabbing my back?
ah, that’s a wire from her halter top
there was an hour where her head kept banging
against the bottom of a table top
i saw my life in a split screen
but life’s just one shot
[pre+chrous]
what the h+ll would i tell my girlfriend
but the thing is she’s not my girlfriend anymore
i traded it all for some third degree carpet burn

[chorus]
oh no + head meet floor
i don’t wanna do this no more
every kiss is a jam band solo
never gonna say yolo no mo’
my mind says no
my body says h+ll no
let this be over
exhausting lover

[verse 3]
then she handed me a hot wheels track
i said, girl that’s pretty weird
where did you get that?
she said never mind that
here nerd beat my ass in the bath like my dad did
when i was a bad kid
i said, nah what’s this!
let me up out of the motel six
and tell me where my pants went
that’s when i heard the door breaking
it wasn’t housekeeping
it was her boyfriend
[pre+chorus]
don’t know what came over me
out the door in my boxer briefs
some dude live tweeted
as i ran half+naked past a cracker barrel

[chorus]
oh no + head meet floor
i don’t wanna do this no more
every kiss is a jam band solo
never gonna say yolo no mo’
my mind says no
my body says h+ll no
let this be over
exhausting lover

[outro]
i don’t wanna this no more
exhausting lover
i don’t wanna do this no more
