The Privilege Lyrics
Give my best to your sister
I guess they sent her to some specialist
She was always this strange heartsick autistic kid
But I suppose she made the most of it
I suppose she made the most of it
Drove herself to the doctors
Thank god your father never caught wind of it
They said she caught something awful
But that she made it through the worst of it
She's made it through the worst of it
Bring me the head of my love life
Hopes rise waist high
And its never quite like the first time
I don't mind to
Praise the prodigal father
The boys they grew into embarrassments of men
Raised of the soft constitutions
I know he left you to the savages
But save it for your analyst
Don't know if you remember
Your face was lovely like a woman's then
The less than confident lover
You said you'd never fall in love again
You'd never fall in love again
Bring me the head of my love life
It's all gone cock-eyed
But if my heart breaks your birth right
But I don't mind to
Forget my friends from the city
They better bury me in Everett
Leave what's left of me on the bridge beside the sea
I guess it's time I'd gotten over it
So much for elegant women
God bless those broad stroke sentimentalists
And though I know your hearts not really in it
Ill just keep paying for the privilege
Keep paying for the privilege
I guess they sent her to some specialist
She was always this strange heartsick autistic kid
But I suppose she made the most of it
I suppose she made the most of it
Thank god your father never caught wind of it
They said she caught something awful
But that she made it through the worst of it
She's made it through the worst of it
Hopes rise waist high
And its never quite like the first time
I don't mind to
The boys they grew into embarrassments of men
Raised of the soft constitutions
I know he left you to the savages
But save it for your analyst
Your face was lovely like a woman's then
The less than confident lover
You said you'd never fall in love again
You'd never fall in love again
It's all gone cock-eyed
But if my heart breaks your birth right
But I don't mind to
They better bury me in Everett
Leave what's left of me on the bridge beside the sea
I guess it's time I'd gotten over it
God bless those broad stroke sentimentalists
And though I know your hearts not really in it
Ill just keep paying for the privilege
Keep paying for the privilege

Give my best to your sister I guess they sent her to some specialist She was always this strange heartsick autistic kid But i suppose she made the most of it I suppose she made the most of it

Bring me the head of my love life Hopes rise waist high And its never quite the first time But I don't mind today
Praise the prodigal father The boys, they grew into embarrassments of men Raised off of soft constitutions I know he left you to the savages But save it for your analyst
Don't know if you remember your face was lovely like a woman's then A less than confident lover You said you'd never fall in love again You'd never fall in love again
Bring me the head of my love life It's all gone cock-eyed But if my heart breaks your birth right(?) But I don't mind today
Forget my friends from the city They'd rather bury me in Everett(?) They just left me at the bridge beside the sea I guess it's time I'd gotten over it
So much for elegant women God bless those broad stroke sentimentalists And though I know your heart's not really in it I'll just keep hanging for the privilege Keep hanging for the privilege
Keep hanging for the privilege.
