you're the kind of person whose the center of a galaxy / houses full of people who you met just yesterday
and they all know you tangentially just constellationallically / and you smile at the ones you like and know just what to say
you brought ten people over and you smiled and you pointed at the / shooting stars and fun gay bars where you would like to go
and if somebody is intrested in ceiling-high banalities / then i would say that youre the person who they ought to know
kissing boys in darkened bars and clubs that make your heart beat fast / and missing people who moved out just cause you couldn't make it last and
somebody oh somebody you really want to know said / something oh oh something and you really really had to go then
mmmmmmmmmmmmm
your friends leave before three AM they do not stay the night
or if they do they never leave which I guess is allright allright with me
the artists and the lovers and the ones who laugh so beautifully
but where's your art and lover oh oh where could she be?
Is she hiding in the punch bowl is she scared of all the people
does your lover like these parties does your lover she like me?
oh but where's the girl who knows you, not the one who shares your bed
how come after all your parties you look hollow like you're dead
oooooohhhh
you hold hands like a germaphobe and kiss like it's a mask
oh gaspity oh gaspity how long can all this last, what are you seeking in the palms of girls with fragile hearts
what are you looking for when you don't stop till after dark oh
Do you know of what you're searching do you even have a plan oh darling how I want to love you but I do not understand
Do you want for deeper meaning do you want for brighter stars, or are you just party themeing and clutching your tarot cards
You're a person worthy of someone's most intimate affections, while it's like riding a comet without gravity's direction
Some people are just happy with bright lights and cute gay men, but you're acting oh so lonely and I think you'd like a friend
A real friend, not one you give up like all that volunteering, somebody who won't run away when your heart's having trouble beating
I don't really know you so won't tell you what to do, but Gaspity oh Gaspity why must you consume comsume!
Stars and comets burn up as they slide across the sky, spilling beer and tears in everybody's open upturned eyes oh
Gaspity who are you, do you want someone to know? Oh Gaspity I love you but I really have to go
ooooohhh
