ode to ex-girlfriends - alex dezen lyrics
[verse 1]
kelly was the girl on the top swing
she gave me nicknames and paintings
her father was dying of something
that she didn’t understand
he was a great cook
and a kind man
[verse 2]
always, once a year
usually when the snow appears
i look her up
she never replies
probably wishes i would die
i left her for
my now ex-wife
[chorus]
to all the lovers i wrote love letters
and all their mothers who bought me nice sweaters
to all of them, i hereby extend
this ode to ex-girlfriends
[verse 3]
ashley was the girl from cambridge
she was a vegan and brutally honest
her mother was french
and never liked me
i could always tell
we saw a jazz band in a hotel
[verse 4]
but when i’m in chicago
we get dairy-free gelato
and she looks sad
“i wish you were happy,” she says
and i just start laughing
“jesus, i’m just fine”
but she’s knows i’m lying
[chorus]
to all the lovers i wrote love letters
and all their mothers who bought me nice sweaters
to all of them, i hereby extend
this ode to ex-girlfriends
[verse 5]
laura was the girl in the boys pants
she was a big fan of they might be giants
her parents were cuban and spanish
hair just like a willow tree
that i would climb in
when she kissed me
[verse 6]
we said we would meet in 1998
in central park
and right there in the snow
she was standing all alone
like alice in that wonderland
[chorus]
to all the lovers i wrote love letters
and all their mothers who bought me nice sweaters
to all of them, i hereby extend
this ode to ex-girlfriends
[verse 7]
elizabeth was the girl from the east side
we never dated, but kissed a few times
we used to get high after school
when her parents were out of town
i’d tickle her arm till i p-ssed out
[verse 8]
i saw her at a bar
stumbling into someone’s car
five years later
she kissed me on the neck
but was aiming for my cheek
her hair smelled sweet
and she died the next week
[chorus]
to all the lovers i wrote love letters
and all their mothers who bought me nice sweaters
to all of them, i hereby extend
this ode to ex-girlfriends
this ode to ex-girlfriends
this ode to ex-girlfriends
