Another Year (Amanda Palmer cover) Lyrics

I tried to fall in it again
My friends took bets and disappeared
They mime their sighing violins
I think I'll wait another year

I want my chest pressed to your chest
My nervous systems interfere
Ten or eleven months at best
I think I'll wait another year

This weather turns my tricks to rust
I am a lousy engineer
The winter makes things hard enough
I think I'll wait another year

Plus, I'm only 26 years old
My grandma died at 83
That's lots of time if I don't smoke
I think I'll wait another year

I'm not as callous as you think
I barely breathe when you are near
It's not as bad when I don't drink
I think I'll wait another year

I have my new Bill Hicks CD
I have my friends and my career
I'm getting smaller by degrees
You said you'd help me disappear
But that could take forever
I think I'll wait another year
It'll be the best year ever
I think I'll wait another year

Can't we just wait together?
You bring the smokes, I'll bring the beer

I think I'll wait another year

Cover art for Another Year (Amanda Palmer cover) lyrics by Murder by Death

This is an Amanda Palmer song - did they cover it? I know the two toured together.

Yes, they did. She covered one of theirs & they covered one of hers on one of the Split Series albums. Amanda covered "Three Men Hanging".
