Amanda Palmer Denial Thing Lyrics

Why not kill a 12-year-old or two?
You better do it now
Before it gets a chance to get you blue
Well, you're doing the best you can
You really are a handsome man
And I always thought that look was good for you

You're gonna dodge the fuzz, the Mexico
You won't go blind
And that cigarette'll make you grow, grow, grow
You've got such a lovely bed
What a very nice trail of dead
Did you think it wouldn't happen
If you acted like you didn't know?

Well, it's happening right now
It's happening right now

You just can't fake your way around it, kid
You're gonna keep on getting killer karma if you keep
it hid
Well, you've dug this grave for months
I'm just giving you a little shove And now you're innocently asking what you did

Well, you're doing it right now
You're doing it right now

Oh, I'll miss you, and all the best to you
Oh, I'll miss you, and all the best to you
Hope the whole denial thing works out

Oh, even when you tried to disappear
You shouted so loud for help that you could never hear
Oh, always wondering what went wrong
Singing everybody else's songs
Well, it doesn't matter now
Well, it doesn't matter now

Oh, I'll miss you, and all the best to you
Oh, I'll miss you, and all the best to you
Hope the whole denial thing works out

Hope the whole denial thing works out
