maita - japanese waitress lyrics

pour me a glass, i know this week we said we’d stay dry
but jesus, i thought the man would never leave
his suit is from texas, the room, it bulged
from the sheer size of his body and pride
he asked me when i would walk on his back
i just had to laugh and fill up his glass

he looks at me when he says that his son needs a girl
like i wait around for duty to call on me
but i must move on ’cause the boss says to evenly
scatter my youth and my praise
i must love them all, the most and the same

i hate pouring tea, it’s not what i studied to do
i will pour the tea, that’s what they pay me to do

yuko, she waits for a man to buy up all her time
she may not look it, but she’s getting too old for this
still she smiles when she speaks of the father her children lost
he was a real rocket scientist
now she works her shifts and goes home and feeds her kids

she will pour the tea, that’s what she is trained to do
but not like this and not for you

they say go be free, quit this place and follow your dreams
i caught myself watching the blue sky like it was a prize
jose says my hands could be softer than they in fact are
he tells me if i have the chance, i must go be a star
he spent twenty years building his dream on his hard+earned beaverton property
he says he’s selling it soon, he’s scared of this country
says he’s moving back south, he’s scared of this country
i will pour the tea and oh, they will pay me
i will pour the tea because art is not free
now i lay back, tomorrow comes round too fast
so matthew, please, won’t you pour me a glass?
