A                 E                   D
I looked up at the ceiling the entire time
D                        A
Well it didn’t last for long
A         E                       D
Like 15 minutes or so. They had said it would hurt, but it didn’t
A               E                      D
His face all grumped up, veins were showing on his forehead
           A                     E
Closed my eyes and thought of dancers,
           D                     
closed my eyes and thought of dancers
D                       A           E
I thought of what my friends would say
D                    A           E             
I thought of how my life would change
D                 A                  E
I just laid real still there on the bed.
A               E                        D
Afterwards I said, like I hear you’re supposed to:
D                        A
“Was it good for you as well”
A                     E               D
He was proud, said: “Ok we can do it again
D                                   A                E
But maybe this time, you can do it better than this
D
You can do it better than this.”
D A-E
A           E                             D
I faked to come, because I hear you’re supposed to
D                               A                  E                  D
There was obviously something wrong with me and I didn’t want him to know
D                         A     E         D
I was afraid he’d have a heartattack and die
D                       A            E             D
I went to work at the shoestore and waved him goodbye
D                   A          E
I felt sad, but I didn’t know why
D                    A       E
Do you want those in red, I said
D           A       E
250 with laces, I said
D                    A                 E
