Lyrics He Didn't Mention His Mother - Eleanor Friedberger

He Didn't Mention His Mother

I feel just as crazy as I did last night
I feel like I’ll get up and go
Today I am frozen but tomorrow
I’ll write about you
Uh-huh
My friend and her baby and a dog that I know
I got nothing done, that’s the way
On the roof, in the attic, or out the window
Was it you?
Uh-huh
A mouse, a bear or a bug
A house, a chair and a rug
A mouse, a bear or a bug
Was it you?
Was it you?
I can still see you sitting on the edge of the bed
Looking at me like it was something
Walk over the bridge and keep walking ahead
Of you
Uh-huh
I so wanted something to happen that day
And then what I wanted, it happened
And that just don’t always happen that way
To me
Oh no
A mouse, a bear or a bug
A house, a chair and a rug
A mouse, a bear or a bug
Yes it’s you, yes it’s you
