Phone Calls

Wake me up if you're feeling lonely
 I'll be home getting drunk off irish whiskey
 I don't live here but I guess that's alright
 It's just where my body goes at night
 I've seen the ocean, I've been to the nino
 I think it's funny how they drink their poison so slow
 And in the morning when the day ain't light
 He'll jump the window in your bedroom out of sight
 But if you've got a question you're dying to ask
 And if you wish you could've left it in the past
 I hope that you recognize that phone calls are commitments in these times
 But it's worth it you know, because I love you
 What's a boy supposed to do? When he's tangled up in all things blue
 For the first time
 I don't know what to do
 I'll sing at meetings I'll go to war
 Do all the things that made my dad proud before
 I'll apply for school and vote for Bernie
 I hope my GED gets me past my thirties
 But if you've got a question you're dying to ask
 And if you wish you could've left it in the past
 I hope that you recognize that phone calls are commitments in these times
 But it's worth it you know, because I love you
 What's a boy supposed to do? When he's tangled up in all things blue
 For the first time
 I don't know what to do
