Alex has blue eyes,
well who cares? no I don't
If somebody somewhere cries,
well who cares? No you don't.
and Alex has a band,
so who cares about war?
If somebody somewhere dies,
well who cares? No you don't.
Alex has black hair,
and who cares? well I do.
You've got a lovely smile,
I could spend a while with that smile.
and Alex has a boyfriend,
oh well, I'm in hell.
I'll sing you a song,
Would you listen to a lover's song?
Would you hold my hand?
I'm as cold as the snow
If you said let's go,
I would follow.
Could we fall in love?
Well who cares about love.
Could we run away?
Anywhere, anyway, only you (x5)
well who cares? no I don't
If somebody somewhere cries,
well who cares? No you don't.
so who cares about war?
If somebody somewhere dies,
well who cares? No you don't.
and who cares? well I do.
You've got a lovely smile,
I could spend a while with that smile.
oh well, I'm in hell.
I'll sing you a song,
Would you listen to a lover's song?
I'm as cold as the snow
If you said let's go,
I would follow.
Well who cares about love.
Could we run away?

My favorite song on the new album. Christopher Owens says in this interview that it's about a hipster girl in San Francisco: http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2011/09/the-story-behind-the-loveliest-rock-album-of-the-year-so-far/245138/
the black hair and boyfriend part is SO good.
