Are You There Margaret? It’s Me, God. Songtext
von The Lawrence Arms

They told me where to go
(And I always follow)
They told me what to do
(I swallowed every drop down)
They told me bedtime stories
(Of how I′d rise above)
They told me they were true

(I sat and thought about her)
On the train ride out
(Until my stomach turned)
Like it's done for years now
(I thought about her hips and thighs)
With the red in my eyes
(I felt my body burn)
Burn, yeah, yeah


Aeroplane, aeroplane
Don′t leave without me
'Cause I'm out here all by myself
And I got no place to sleep
Aeroplane, aeroplane
Don′t leave without me
′Cause I'm out here all by myself and I
Ain′t got no place to sleep

And you told me that you loved me
(I swallowed every drop down)
And you told me how it felt
(Like being gagged and bound)
And you told me you were leaving
(On the last train out)
And you told me, "Go to hell"

Well, let me tell you, beautiful
I've been there
Believe me when I say I′m not afraid
Of destruction, sorrow, fear or regret
I heard the devil call me by my name
I heard the devil call me by my name
Hey, yeah, yeah


Aeroplane, aeroplane
Don't leave without me
′Cause I'm out here all by myself
And I got no place to sleep
Aeroplane, aeroplane
Don't leave without me
′Cause I′m out here all by myself and I

Aeroplane, aeroplane
Don't leave without me
′Cause I'm out here all by myself
And I got no place to sleep

Aeroplane, aeroplane
Don′t leave without me
'Cause I′m out here all by myself tonight
(Yeah, I'm out here all by myself tonight)
And I got no place to sleep

No, no, no, no
Got no place to sleep
No, no, no, no
Believe me when I say I'm not afraid
I heard the devil call me by my name
Believe me when I say I′m not afraid
I heard the devil call me by my name
Huh
