I'm embarrassed to say this relationship works
Because we never talk
Except for make me some eggs, bacon and toast
And aren't you gonna wear socks
To be honest and true
What I like about you
Is that you're always high
You don't care if we never
Get out of the house
And neither do I
[Chorus]
This must be the way we want it
This must be what we need
I'll make the martinis and you fire up the weed
There's so much guilt attached to how we bеgan
And that's what silences me
You wеre with someone else, I snatched you up for myself
Like the last piece of meat
Not that you didn't
Jump at the chance
Oh dog that you are
But I opened the door, patted the seat, and said get in the car
[Chorus]
This must be the way we want it
This must be what we need
I'll make the martinis
And you fire up the weed
I think that talking things through is overratted
I'd rather be blue and medicated
It took a few years
And buckets of tears
For me to understand
Why your ex never once
Even complained
When I took her man
She was patiently waiting
For a sucker like me to come onto the scene
I did her a favor
And she'll forever grateful for me
[Chorus]
This must be the way we want it
This must be what we need
I'll make the martinis
And you fire up the weed
We'll keep each other out of circulation
Doing mankind a very good deed
