Glendora Lyrics
It's New Year's Eve, I'm in Glendora
I'm the only living person in Glendora
Heading east on the freeway
I left my prom dress on the bus-stop in Duarte
I switch the rules, you take advantage
You know I always like to play the victim
And would you fuck me? Because I'd fuck me
Am I your wetnap?
Freestyle walking
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I'm on my way, I want to see you
You're in your bedroom with some dancers underneath you
I come inside, I hear the door slam
You tell me if I really loved you I'd get with them
They make me sick, you make me sicker
But I want to please you so I go and I get with her
I close my eyes, I think about me
I'm just your wetnap
Freestyle walking
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I should find someone better for me
But Mom says we're born this way
Every time I come over to your house
You just shit on my face
And you know it, you know it
You know, you know it really freaks me out
I drove for hours on bad directions
I arrive, there's something you forgot to mention
An afterthought, straight to the tabby
"Sorry Angel, went to Reno," happy, happy
It ain't the rest, why do you Jenny?
I'm in a booth, it's almost twelve, your favorite Denny's
Another year, I need a sundae
I'm just your sidebet
Freestyle walking
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I'm the only living person in Glendora
Heading east on the freeway
I left my prom dress on the bus-stop in Duarte
I switch the rules, you take advantage
You know I always like to play the victim
And would you fuck me? Because I'd fuck me
Am I your wetnap?
Freestyle walking
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
You're in your bedroom with some dancers underneath you
I come inside, I hear the door slam
You tell me if I really loved you I'd get with them
They make me sick, you make me sicker
But I want to please you so I go and I get with her
I close my eyes, I think about me
I'm just your wetnap
Freestyle walking
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
But Mom says we're born this way
Every time I come over to your house
You just shit on my face
And you know it, you know it
You know, you know it really freaks me out
I arrive, there's something you forgot to mention

I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again
I cry, cry, cry, then I complain
Come back for more, do it again

so yeah I have also always been baffled by the whole freestlye walking line. I mean i know what it is but whaaaaaat the hell does it have to do with anything haha, whatever i love this song.
"And would you fuck me? Cause I'd fuck me..." Brilliant. I love this song, it's like my angry anthem.
I want to marry jenny.... BTW, why would a girl stay with a guy she knows is stupid???
Some of us are born with a sense of self-respect. But then we're taught that we're supposed to be self-sacrificing and that we're supposed to endure hardships and that that's what love really is. So, to answer your question, "The Ghost Dog," because society tells us we have to, that we're not worth better. Which is not to say that ALL women would endure abuse, but . . . That's why some women do.
wow, jenny lewis is my idol, is there any girl who doesn't know EXACTLY what shes talking about..and doing it so well!! yell leader you are the luckiest person i know
lol, even tho i am a guy, i still love this song, its beyond cute...although i'm shure i've loved someone enough to take that kind of shit from them...its alot eaiser to look at someone from the outside and call them stupid..then it is to see what they're talking about...thanx Jenny, great song, oh and Yell Leader...i'm also very jealous
Ugh, I live in Glendora. And nothing is here.
The whole "freesyle walking" thing...
From urbandictionary.com: "A sport similar to skateboarding and acrobatics in concept, yet is totally unique. Requires agility and quick thinking. Basically, jumping from/up to great heights, quickly navigating cluttered obstacles, or otherwise showing great physical dexterity on foot."
Maybe having to do with this guy maneuvering around things a boyfriend is obligated to do: talking his way out of dates, breaking promises, etc. The way he flits around and is fickle and flaky takes great talent, much like the metaphorical "freestyle walking."
Just thinking out loud.
This like a foreshadowing of "Portions for Foxes".
i think the part about the dancers in the room underneath you, is saying she walked in on her boyfriend with some strippers and he wanted her to join in. she says that she wants to please him so she gets with them for his pleasure. so she was probably coerced into having a threesome with him.
good explanation :)
