speedy ortiz - shine theory lyrics

[verse 1]
drop the word i’m
meant to use to
coax the pretty waiter from his restaurant
though he’s bad news
and a cartoon
of every trope the trophy world’s designed to want

[pre-chorus]
they say i am a spoiled thing
i keep my scar out on my head
and always come when i am told to go
i leave my neighbors scary notes
which i don’t sign while they’re at work
and i don’t listen when he tries to talk
stare at his flapping jaw

[chorus]
i wanna want him so bad
but i don’t recognize the charms that he has
’cause my heart looks in on itself
and he’d be better loved by somebody else
who cares about his face

[verse 2]
like a robot
who inflicts one shot
then starts to wheel away despite his protocol
i got a hook in
the conversation
which i played for meaty bait, though it was watered down

[pre-chorus]
they say i am a spoiled mess
i never fold up what should fold
and shine much better in my house, alone
the charts predict a brother kid
but doctors say i need a sis
that i can p-wn off to my spiral sh-ll
and tie to my cord as well

[chorus]
i wanna want her so bad
but i don’t recognize the charms that she has
’cause my heart looks in on itself
and any friend i make’s a stagehand at best
to help along the play

[bridge]
fights first and facts last
these lads have the -sses for tv
but who’s taking my picture?
they better be taking it only of me

[chorus]
i wanna want him so bad
but i don’t recognize the charms that he has
i hear he’s pretty and swell, but i don’t get aroused

i wanna want that so bad
but i don’t recognize the charms that i have
’cause my heart looks in on itself
that’s why the beacon’s burnt
