Bundle Up

You could have told me happy birthday
they are just two little words.
But they'd beat all of the other ones
that today, I have already heard.
So you think you're looking swell now?
with your pockets filled up with green
but a temp job and a summer tan
well it doesn't add up to self esteem.

When I said, "best I ever had"
I wasn't even twenty-four yet.
So don't let that crowd your head.
I can say it stone cold sober
that this game is far from over
bundle up, babe
it's only getting colder.

You like to get me on the hook
just to throw me back out to sea
you've gotten so creative
inventing new ways to ignore me.
I used to take it personal
but now I see you're just fucked up
can't bring yourself to admit it
blame it all on rotten luck.

When I said, "best I ever had"
I wasn't even twenty-four yet.
So don't let that crowd your head.
I can say it stone cold sober
that this game is far from over
bundle up, babe,
it's only getting colder.

It used to be so hot I melted
but now I've got us on ice.
I can't keep this from being messy
and I can't make you play nice.
But I can find another bed
take my mind somewhere new
and at midnight, I promise
I won't be thinking about you.

When I said, "best I ever had"
I wasn't even twenty-four yet.
So don't let that crowd your head.
I can say it stone cold sober
that this game is far from over
bundle up, babe
it's only getting colder.

You could have told me happy birthday.
