letra de thumbs again - lucy dacus

[verse 1]
you hung up the phone
and i asked you what was wrong
your dad has come to town
he’d like to meet
i said, “you don’t have to see him”
but for whatever reason, you can’t tell him no

[verse 2]
so we meet him at a bar
you were holding my hand hard
he ordered rum and coke
i can’t drink either anymore
he hadn’t seen you since the fifth grade
now you’re nineteen and you’re 5’8″
he said, “honey, you sure look great
do you get the checks i send on your birthday?”

[chorus]
i would k!ll him
if you let me
i would k!ll him
quick and easy
your nails are digging
into my knee
i don’t know how you keep smiling
[verse 3]
i love your eyes
and he has ’em
or you have his
’cause he was first
i imagine my thumbs on the irises
pressing in until they burst

[verse 4]
i clear my throat
and say we ought to get home
he offers us a ride
i reply, “no, that’s alright”
and when we leave
you feel him watching
so we walk a mile in the wrong direction

[chorus]
i would k!ll him
if you let me
i would k!ll him
quick and easy
your nails are digging
into my knee
i don’t know how you keep smiling
i don’t know how you keep smiling
i don’t know how you keep smiling
[outro]
i wanna take your face between my hands and say:
“you two are connected by a pure coincidence
bound to him by blood, but baby, it’s all relative
you’ve been in his fist ever since you were a kid
but you don’t owe him sh-t even if he said you did
you don’t owe him sh-t even if he said you did”
