Callous

I was there in the corner
With my tumbler of gin
And the room got much colder
So I knew you'd come in
Who's that guy on your shoulder?
What's that crap on his chin?

And I know it's not my place
To go around acting jealous
But when you shove it in my face
That's just callous

Now when you introduce us
What am I supposed to say
When my handshake's not hardy
And my laughter's not gay?
This may not be my party
I may cry anyway

You can say that he's a prince
I don't think that you'll like his palace
But when you look so damn convinced
That's just callous

Now my heart feels like sushi
It's so tender and raw
But I know when I'm beaten
So I guess I'll withdraw
From the nights that you sweeten
And the flies that you draw

And it may be disregard
That I'm mistaking for malice
But when you kiss in your own backyard
That's just callous
