Post-Postmodern Love
I’m out late cheating on my new
robot therapist girlfriend,
with you.
Saying, “Don’t worry,
she doesn’t have a goddamn clue.”
Yeah, she’s not like you
she’s nothing like you.
———————————————————————————————————————————————
You’re telling me,
“Sorry you’ve been so blue
just wish there was
something that I could do.”
I’m saying, “Don’t worry
about a thing
I know you’re feeling that way too
I know you’re feeling that way too.”
———————————————————————————————————————————————
I can’t stop lying to my new
robot therapist girlfriend,
it’s true.
Telling myself, “Don’t worry,
no way she has a goddamn clue.
Yeah, she’s nothing like you,
she’s nothing like you.
———————————————————————————————————————————————
Rest in peace, now, Steven Burns,
they found your body comatose.
Why’d you have to go that way -
and leave me stranded all alone
swearing to your final breath
only the dead know
when to say no.
———————————————————————————————————————————————
Then I found out yesterday
you just left it all and moved upstate
don’t know what happened to the dog though
can’t believe you’d just let her go.
I swear, only the dead know
when to say no.
———————————————————————————————————————————————
I’m out late again cheating on my new
robot therapist girlfriend
with you,
still feeling blue.
And now you’re just telling me,
“Sorry, I found someone new.
But I promise, don’t worry -
He’s nothing like you.
He’s nothing like you.”
———————————————————————————————————————————————
I swear only the dead know
when to let go.
