El Misisipí Lyrics

I don't wanna put words in your mouth

or hear the ones you would say

either way, I know I'll have to pay

I lost my best friend four years ago

but that's coincidental

you don't mean half as much as she did



pack my bags and I head upstream

with a head full of wine

and a stupid pipe dream of el misisipí

I don't care if you miss me



I changed my name so please don't try to find me

I don't wanna see that look on your face

or hear your pointless blabbing

I'd rather know you in a song I sing

you were my best friend four years ago

but that's inconsequential

I wouldn't be your best friend now if you paid me



pack my bags and I head upstream

with a head full of wine

and a stupid pipe dream of el misisipí

I don't care if you miss me

I'll shave my head so you won't ever try to find me



"realize...you've never been a friend to me."
