Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine Different colors in my room I paint them all and think of you Different colors in my head I wish I was with you instead Save yourself for something better I get anxious, are you lonely too? Staring out the upstairs window I wish I was with you, I wish I was with you too Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine Nothing's right My world's gone wrong There's a leak and the curtain is gone It's all stained Beyond repair They replaced something that wasn't there In my head We're not selling the copper in my head We just dance to Cyndi Lauper in my head I paint a better picture We'll figure out the rest We'll figure out the rest Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine Bury me in this shed Under this house I'm dead Screaming of constructive construction But my lungs are filled with lead Bury me in this shed Under this house I'm dead Screaming of constructive construction But my lungs are filled with lead Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine Maybe I could fix us A fresh coat of paint's just fine Carpet on the floorboard The tiling on the roof will shine
