The Mountain Goats Lyrics

"(No, I Can't)" lyrics



1, 2, 3, 4

you bought me some chocolates.
and you bought me a rose.
and you brought me a paper bag.
and you brought me a lamp.

thank you for the chocolates.
thank you for the rose.
thank you for the paperbag.
thank you for the lamp.

(now i have everything i need.) x4

you brought me a sofa.
and you brought me some books.
and you brought me a filing cabinet.
and you brought me a panasonic dx4500.

thank you for the sofa.
thank you for the books.
thanks for the filing cabinet.
i don't know what i..
i don't know what i.. ever did without it.

(now i have everything i need.) x4

you came by. and you came in.
and you let the wind in.
it must be cold outside.
we stared out, through the sliding glass door.
but i'd forgotten what we were looking for.

thank you for coming by.
it's nice to see you once in a while.
thanks for the coat i forgot to mention.
i've been freezing in here.
i've been freezing in here.

(now i have everything i need.) x4
yeah!
