A gender-flipped update of the Jimmy Webb-penned classic “By the Time I Get to Phoenix”, most notably covered by Glen Campbell and Isaac Hayes. In place of the “Phoenix” narrator’s regret and longing–including a phone call from the road (vs. “I’m not sure if I should call you”)–“Split Screen” substi...
Split Screen Lyrics
Today I got up easy
You know I'm not a morning person
Never said I was leaving
I wasn't sure until this morning
Split screen our apartment
Where you still lie there sleeping
Keep feeling old cafes
He's the one who needs you baby
Will you really miss me
Will you really think about me
Yeah I'd like to think so
But as they say I'm always dreaming
Goodbye to the tower blocks
Last look at the town I'm leaving
Tall buildings and offices
And this all full of memories baby
Now I really don't care
Cause I'm dying to get the sun in my hair
Yeah I really don't care
That I'm here and you're still there
Yeah I really don't care
Cause I'm going to breathe the country air
Yeah I really don't care
But it's OK
I've been driving for ages
Your tapes are starting to bore me
Well I think I should stop now
I'm not sure if I should call you
Split screen our apartment
Where you have seen my letter
Well I know it's not Phoenix
But the scenery's getting better baby
Now I really don't care
Cause I'm dying to get the sun in my hair
Yeah I really don't care
That I'm here and you're still there
Yeah I really don't care
Cause I'm going to breathe the country air
Yeah I really don't care
But it's OK
Now I really don't care
Cause I'm dying to get the sun in my hair
Yeah I really don't care
That I'm here and you're still there
Yeah I really don't care
Cause I'm going to breathe the country air
Yeah I really don't care
But it's OK
