The Only Thing I Know Songtext
von The Mountain Goats

When you came back from trenton,
All the sparkle was gone.
And you stood in the shadow
And the curtains were drawn

And i know you′re lying.
And you know you're lying too.
That is just about the only thing i know about you.


When you pocketed your eyeshadow
And you picked up the phone,
Stepped out on the balcony
And drank in the drone.

And i know you′re leaving.
And you know you're leaving too.
That is just about the only thing i know about you.

When you stop on the sidewalk
And you looked up above you,
Warm wet air came down to shelter me.
How much do i love you?

Well you know you're dying.
And i know you′re dying too.
That is just about the only thing i know about you.
