Seasonal Hire Lyrics

Somewhere between all the signals you send
I fall out of favor as I'm falling into bed
Stare at the wall as you're calling it off
And it's on and it's off and it's on again

Feed me to lions in front of your friends
It's happened before and now it's happening again
You say what you want
'cause you know I'll come over and over and over again

But now you call on me to put out the fire
A seasonal hire's all I've ever been
I'll just let you down again
You tell me that you think me untrue in all that I do
Got what you're looking for,
but I'm already out the door

You got a problem and I got the time
You got a way of keeping people on the line
I'll tear at my headset
Until I'm hung over and over and over again

But now fill me with red wine and carry me home
Put on the phonograph and disconnect the phone
It's all that we're good at
I know that you don't want to go
But you know what you know so don't

Call on me to put out the fire
A seasonal hire's all I've ever been
I'll just let you down again
You tell me that you think me untrue in all that I do
Got what you're looking for,
But I'm already out the door
