See You Around — текст песни (Vic Chesnutt)

I`m sorry for my lack of communication
but as I`m staring out this fifth floor window
it seems like the least amount of communication the better
oh, well what am I supposed to say
there`s a bloody effigy on my wall
and the complimentary carnation is falling apart
and I ain`t got time for the niceties
or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around
I will see you around
see you around
see you around

well I must admit I`m flattered by your consecration
It`s a mind-numbing spine-chilling
but never-the-less heartwarming gesture
but as you make your advances so clumsily
I`ll save us both the both the hassle and leave
and hang out all night
in the familiar fluorescent light of Dunkin` Donuts
`cause I ain`t got time for the niceties
or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around
see you around
see you around
see you around

well, how are you with issues
lately you`ve been a half-assed activist
you`ve been seen sashaying around the picket line
wearing scarcely any sign
oh, but always vocal in love and strife
and the politics of your all important life
well, I`m sorry but your routine is coming off a bit ragged
and I ain`t got time for the niceties
or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around
I`ll see you around
see you around ...

I`ll see you around ...
