I wish you were like Father of the Bride

I wish you'd learn to roll your eyes at me

When I do something you don't like

When I do it just to spite you

Crack a smile, come on stay a while

I wish you were the coach of the football team

Yeah like really cut your teeth

Chase your dreams

Find out what it means

To be an actual human being

Crack a smile, come on stay a while

I could be the one to teach ya

But I wanna say "fuck it all"

And then I wanna have a call

Why are you looking for a needle in a haystack

When there's horses

I wanna "fuck it all"

I'm half-expecting you to call

Why are you looking for a needle in a haystack

So unimportant

I wish that you'd notice me

♪

Your first love peels the tape off your eyes

So you can carry on moonlighting

What if a good heart is too good for your own good

Trips and falls apart for months on end

Crack a smile, come on stay a while

I wanna say "fuck it all"

And then I wanna have a call

Why are you looking for a needle in a haystack

When there's horses

I want to say "fuck it all"

I'm half-expecting you to call

You're probably looking for a needle in a haystack

So unimportant

I wish that you'd notice me

I have such a vivid memory

Of turning on the TV

Showing you my new favorite thing

You let your silence speak

Shit gets passed down from you to me

I have changed what I believe but

I still just need you to be

Exactly what I need

Such a vivid memory

Of turning on the TV

Showing me your new favorite thing

I let my silence speak

Shit gets passed down from you to me

I have changed what I believe but

I still just need you to be

Exactly what I need

I still need you to need me

I wanna say "fuck it all"

Crack a smile, come on stay a while

And then I wanna have a call

You're probably looking for a needle in a haystack

Why are you looking for a needle in a haystack?

Crack a smile, come on stay a while

You're probably looking for a needle in a haystack

When there's horses

I want you to notice me
