August and Everything After (Deluxe Edition)
Lyrics

Put on your bad self
get out your party dress and fix up your makeup
try to make a good impression

This is a new world –
were all the same here, well maybe not the same
you know what I mean

I’ve got everything that you want
I’ve got everything and someday I’ll be president

I’ve for everything that you want.
I’ve got everything except the single thing you really need.

Separate, love from addiction its not the same
I know I see desperation pulling my strings.

Hey Eliza, now what do you want?
I play piano and I sing like a humming bird and
oh I forgot that humming birds don’t sing,
it doesn’t matter really
you know what I mean

I’ve got everything that you want
I’ve got everything and its a brand new world Eliza.
I’ve got everything that you want
I’ve got everything except the single thing you really need

Sail away blood and rejection ..they isolate
I know I see, a generation staring back at me

Wasted away
wasted my time

This picture you see is nothing like the one
I wanted painted of me.

Eliza says, “it’s all right with me, if you’re sure.
It wouldn’t be the first time, you know, it’s happened a couple of times before.
And.. I don’t even expect much anymore. And anyway..
it’s not as if I was waiting for you to come and make it all okay.”

Shut away to to wing blood and rejection they isolate
I know I see visions of people grabbing hold of me

Wasted away
wasted my time

This picture you see is nothing like the one I wanted painted of me.

Put on your bad self, get out your party dress and fix up your makeup
try and make a good impression
