Dolph Chaney: Music
Let's Just Not Be Friends
(Dolph Chaney)
November 17, 2011
This is an even-rougher-than-usual acoustic take. I sat on it for almost two months thinking that I'd spiff it up before putting it on the website; while I still intend to get it more ready, I can't stand waiting and want you to hear the song now. Rated TV-MA.
You stab your sushi rice and
say I should move on.
I get the message as I
play with my udon.
You let me down so easy,
said "let's keep in touch..."
These days of parting ways just
blow oh so so much.
I don't wanna come to your church
after getting left in the lurch
I'll abstain from your complaining
as the waning sun descends.
I don't wanna write you a letter
when it only makes you feel better
while it pulls over my eyes wool/cotton blends
so let's just not be friends.
Though I still hold you in the
highest of esteem,
it pales to how I used to
hold you in my dreams.
You said "time heals all wounds,"
you said "all things must pass".
You stay in touch so much; why
did you dump my ass?
I don't wanna come to your hideout;
I don't wanna run like a wide-out,
straining to locate your passes
as my glasses don't make trends.
I don't wanna blab on the phone
I don't wanna co-sign your loan
I don't wanna smile at you and just have to pretend
so let's just not be friends.
I'll never miss the lack
of trust and faith you mustered
I used to miss your rack
but your bust has lost its luster.
(guitar solo)
You said you wanted a nice boy to kiss
so I was nice and kissed you.
Cupid loaded up a double-shot;
one hit me and both missed you.
I don't wanna come to your wedding
I don't wanna shop for the bedding
that you'll share with my replacement
'til your latest marriage ends.
I don't wanna send you an e-mail;
I just wanna squeeze my new female --
I moved on! back on the horse and on the mend,
so let's just not be friends.
