My Play

I put on a play in my old house
In my cape, jumpin' on the old couch
Puttin' up lights when it's cold out
Mom and dad, both seats sold out
Show you my play
Haven't seen the old house lately
Wonder if they found my spaceship
I don't want my own love wasted
Tell me this is what you're saying
If you both outgrew one another
I could start now, lookin' for a lover
But if love dies, do I fuckin' bother?
I just really, really, really, really wanna show you my play
And I don't wanna do it for dad at dad's new place
I worked really, really, really, really hard, let me show you my play
And I don't wanna do it twice 'cause it's not the same
I've been on dates, bringin' flowers
Tryna be great for an hour
You and me might go sour
But if we don't hold out, then we're cowards
I put on a play in my basement (basement)
Mom and dad's smiling faces (faces)
But now I don't know if they faked it (faked it)
Guess everything is complicated
If you both outgrew one another
I could start now, lookin' for a lover
But if love dies, do I fuckin' bother?
I just really, really, really, really wanna show you my play
And I don't wanna do it for dad at dad's new place
I worked really, really, really, really hard, let me show you my play
And I don't wanna do it twice 'cause it's not the same
You did everything, everything, everything that you could
We do everything, everything, everything 'til it's through
I'll do everything, everything, everything when I'm you
But when I show you my play
Will you pretend you didn't know if I make a mistake?
It's gonna get really, really, really, really bad before it's okay
But maybe you'll forget it all while you're watchin' my play
