someone's trying to be polite or just not paying attention
i've had this t-shirt for years now
i told you before

do you even care?
i'd like to buy gallons of alcohol for the homeless and watch this place burn down
i told you before

flushing moldy wok noodles down the toilet actually made me think of you
it's so not you
i told you before

you can keep my pen
i told you before
i'm not sure if i wasted too many words or not enough

there's not a single thing that you care about other than yourself
i envy you
i told you before

but whom am i telling

slashed bicycle wheels and swedish vegetarians
it's war
i can't be bothered i'm making toast

i told you millions of times so why on earth
did i just now realize you were never listening
you won
i'll keep my mouth shut

but i told you before

Some days you wake up and sit on a park bench next to an eighty year old Russian architect, and some days you don't. I think this is my new life philosophy.

    cheers :)

    i don't write that much in english any more... just some deranged ramblings like this one...
    i usually like to use language in complex ways which i'm more capable of in my mother tongue...
    so some cut-up mindspills will have to do :D

    yeah, you'd be soooo rich :D

    but you better wait until i'm rich and famous and then sell them to the rainbow press... they'd pay you loads of money for my bad out-of-tune singing...
    and i wouldn't even care... i'd be rich enough already and any press would be good press...

    as of now, bad press is bad press... so you better keep them to yourself and giggle :D

    the fact that you pull out all the stops...even if it means crossing the lines of political correctness.
