See You Around - Lyrics by Vic Chesnutt


Lyrics
I'm sorry for my lack of communicationbut as I'm staring out this fifth floor windowit seems like the least amount of communication the betteroh, well what am I supposed to say"there's a bloody effigy on my walland the complimentary carnation is falling apart"and I ain't got time for the nicetiesor rather I was never, never fond of the niceties
I will see you around
I will see you aroundsee you aroundsee you aroundwell I must admit I'm flattered by your consecration
It's a mind-numbing spine-chillingbut never-the-less heartwarming gesturebut as you make your advances so clumsily
I'll save us both the both the hassle and leaveand hang out all nightin the familiar fluorescent light of Dunkin' Donuts'cause I ain't got time for the nicetiesor rather I was never, never fond of the niceties
I will see you aroundsee you aroundsee you aroundsee you aroundwell, how are you with issueslately you've been a half-assed activistyou've been seen sashaying around the picket linewearing scarcely any signoh, but always vocal in love and strifeand the politics of your all important lifewell, I'm sorry but your routine is coming off a bit raggedand I ain't got time for the nicetiesor rather I was never, never fond of the niceties
I will see you around
I'll see you aroundsee you around ...I'll see you around ...
