Houseguest Lyrics

Mailman came while you were out
And I was staying at your house
Letter from your lover
With an Ottawa address

Fill the shower up with steam
Find out what you mean to him
Before I hand it over
I'll glue the flap back down and press
Yes, I'll leave everything the way I found it

I'll bet I'm the best
house guest
house guest you've ever had
I'll bet I'm the best
house guest
house guest you've ever had

I never leave my socks around
I always keep the TV down
And when I leave
I never leave
A mess

We were dozing on the couch
There was noting much to watch
Other than my manners
And your waning graciousness
Ease your thumb off the remote
Place my palms against your throat
The heat here's infernal
and so's that entry in your journal
Yeah, it changed everything the day I found it

I'll bet I'm the best
house guest
house guest you've ever had
I'll bet I'm the best
house guest
who's ever crashed at your pad

I've done things in your room
you'd be ashamed to accuse me of
It's just a tendency I have when certain people
Refuse me love
refuse me love
refuse me love
you refuse, I refuse


I'll leave everything the way I found it
