So you finally found what you're looking for
working part -time at the drugstore
Where it's impossible not to meet
There's another one just next door
She's nothing but cheekbones
My life is a pick -and -choose
It's a second -rate candy store
I've had a taste of almost everything
But the flavor don't last for long
I've seen them come and go
I take pride in the things I own
and the records piled up against the wall
I know each and every one
They've got beautiful kids
They lead meaningful lives in the suburbs
I'd be happy to join them soon
Buy a house and build up a home
And if I'm lucky I'll have kids
This one girl thought highly of me
Said she didn't expect me
In fact, she didn't expect it at all
I used to long for those pretty eyes
Until they spotted a friend of mine
He's got a record collection too
My life is a practical joke
When you've seen it once,
I've seen them come and go
I've seen them come and go
But I keep them numbered you
