Lyrics

Tuxedos

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I think about eyes that watch you

I think about changes I've made

I think about all this fancy food

Goin' down the drain.

I spend a lot of time by myself

Imagining great speeches I'd make

The crimes of people how could I help

But what would I say?

And when I find, when will I find someone to take?

Or did I find and I realized I was a fake

I love to be a stranger at a wedding

'Cause tuxedos don't discriminate

A perfect disguise, so be cool

And fill up your plate

Where will I find, where will I find someone to take?

Or did I find and I realized I was the fake

Where will I find, where will I find someone to take?

For the millionth time, for millionth time

I was to blame

I was the fake, I was to blame

I think about eyes that watch you

I think about changes I've made

I think about all this fancy food

Going down the drain, down the drain, down the drain

Going down the drain, down the drain, down the drain

Going down the drain, drain, drain, drain

Goin' down the drain
