Classifieds Lyrics
Look through the classifieds, maybe I'll find a friend who cares(Decent and true, but my interests are few)How would I reply? Start with "I've never done this before"And all the chains that bind, you might find they're just threads that float aroundIt's fun to fantasize through someone else's eyesEvery week, I read the advertisements from start to end(Stable, mature, but a little unsure)What I am I looking for? #340's in here againLike the characters portrayed in a play no one ever stops to readI have to say that this all seems strange to meIt's not that different from my lifeCondense it down into five linesNow I know the reason why these ads all look alikeHow can anyone describe who they are in a page or less?(Desperately looking for someone, I guess)But when the morning comes, both of you will be scratching your headsIn the aftermath, head to the bathroom to straighten up and thenYou realize you forgot your toothbrush againAnd what you saw in those five lines:Did it materialize?Now you know the reason why that one's in there every timeLook through the classifiedsWho's in the classifieds?I'm through with the classifieds
