When you two broke up, he did not give up
And now he is stalking you
You are all he talks about, how you two went out
How he'll follow wherever you go
Could he really hope to stay, does he want to hear you say
That everything can still work out fine?
What world is he on, singing what maudlin song
Where it's always 2009?
Honore de Balzac said in love it's a fact
That there's always one who suffers, one who's bored
And you're bored with him, with tasting his pain
Straight from his smorgasbord, well
What does he believe, does he expect some reprieve
To make it start over again
With his maudlin old songs, in the world that he's on
It's always 2009
Are you sorry for him, the only victim
When your relationship died
Does it make you feel sick, is the pope a Catholic?
He follows wherever you go
One day he will visit you looking like a wounded doe
Telling you he's doing fine
With his maudlin old songs, in the world that he's from
It's always 2009
