The Bed Song
We are friends in a sleeping bag
Splitting the heat we have one filthy pillow to share
And your lips are in my hair
Someone upstairs has a rap that we laugh at
And people are drinking and singing the scarborough fair
On a ukelele dare
Exhibit B: Well we found an apartment
It's not much to look at - A futon on the floor
Dirty desktop for a door
All the decors made of milk crates and duct tape
And if we have sex they can hear us through the floor
But we don't do that anymore
And I lay there wondering what is the matter
Is this a matter of worse or of better
You took the blanket so I took the bed sheet
And I would have held you if you'd only let me
Exhibit C: Look how quaint and how quiet and private
Our pay checks have bought us a condo in town
It's the nicest flat around
You picked a mattress and had it delivered
And I walked upstairs and the sight of it made my heart pound
And I wrapped my arms around me
And I lay there wondering what is the matter
Is this a matter of worse or of better
You walked right past me and straightened the covers
And I would still love you if you wanted a lover
And you said: All the money in the world
Won't buy a bed so big and wide
To guarantee that you won't accidentally touch me in the night
Then I said: You must be right
Exhibit D: Now we are both mostly paralyzed
Don't know how long we've been lying here in fear
Too afraid to even feel
I find my glasses and you turn the light out
Roll off on your side like you've rolled away for years
Holding back those king-sized tears
And I still don't ask you what is the matter
Is it a matter of worse or of better
You take the heart-failure I'll take the cancer
I've long since stopped wondering why you don't answer
Exhibit E: You can certainly see
How fulfilling a life from the cost and size of stone
Of our final resting home
We got some nice ones right under a cherry tree
You and me lying the only way we know
Side by side and still and cold
And I finally ask you what was the matter
Was this a matter of worse or of better
You stretch your arms out and finally face me
And said
I would have told you if you'd only asked me
you'd only asked me
you'd only asked me
La canción Cama
Somos amigos en un saco de dormir
Dividir el calor que tiene una almohada sucia para compartir
Y tus labios se encuentran en el pelo
Arriba alguien tiene un rap que nos reímos de
Y la gente está bebiendo y cantando la feria de Scarborough
Por una apuesta ukelele
Anexo B: Bueno, hemos encontrado un apartamento
No es gran cosa - un futón en el suelo
Escritorio sucio para una puerta
Todas las decoraciones hechas de cajas de leche y cinta adhesiva
Y si tenemos relaciones sexuales nos pueden escuchar a través del suelo
Pero no me dedico a eso
Y me quedé pensando ¿cuál es la cuestión
¿Es esta una cuestión de peor o mejor de
Usted tomó la manta, así que tomó la sábana de la cama
Y yo os lo hubiera lugar si sólo me lo permitiera
Anexo C: Mira lo pintoresco y lo tranquilo y privado
Nuestros cheques de la paga que nos compró un condominio en la ciudad
Es la mejor plana alrededor
Usted escogió un colchón y lo había entregado
Y subió las escaleras y la vista de que hizo que mi corazón palpite
Y mis brazos a mi alrededor
Y me quedé pensando ¿cuál es la cuestión
Es esta una cuestión de peor o mejor de
Que caminaba junto a mí y se enderezó las cubiertas
Y todavía me amas si wa
