lyrics

there's a squid wrapped round your arm 
as you pace 'round the hotel room
 there's no batteries in the smoke alarm
 i checked but i don't think i'm going to tell you
 temporary tattoos of tentacles all on your neck and back
 i won't ask, but they must mean something 

it's january, and everyone left here right after the holidays 
so now it's just you and me slumming

there's a squid wrapped round your arm 
as you lay there by the ocean
 if you give me the keys to the rental car
 i'll go out for cigarettes and calamine lotion
 two more hours, i've never seen you so tan in my life before
 you could take a nap and i'll go out running
 then we can shower, how many times in my life will i have to say
 "girl, you should eat something"

i go up to the room
 i double-lock the door 
change the password on my phone
 i don't trust you anymore
 i don't know what to expect
 i don't know what happens next
 but i'm waiting... 

you can have it all
 just not all at once
