What's In It For?
Avi Buffalo Lyrics

I walked in on a plan to dissolve all of your wishes
I came across a scheme to destroy all of the things you desire

But I couldn't help your mouth which I missed by two inches
I couldn't resist kissing you even though I barely missed your lips

Maybe I thought that you and I could run away alongside
Perhaps I believed we could escape together

But I didn't understand I was a cold tear in your rawhide
But I didn't realize I was insignificant to you

What's in it for someone with nothing to do?
What benefit does someone with no responsibilities gain from this?

What's in it for me?
What advantage do I receive?

I can read but I won't if I'm sleeping here without you
I can read, but I choose not to if you're not lying beside me

And all these things that you learn, I've been knowing since my childhood
You acquire knowledge that I've possessed since I was young

You are tiny and your lips are like little pieces of bacon
You're petite and your lips are appealing to me

I can feel you on fire 'cause you're drunk and I seem too cool
I can sense your passion because you're intoxicated and I seem indifferent

Know I love it when you put your fingertips around my shoulders
I adore when you touch me, placing your fingers on my shoulders

Should I take you to more functions or would you rather be lonely?
Should I accompany you to social events or would you prefer to be alone?

I feel like I'm messing up too much and I forget where I am
I constantly feel like I'm making mistakes and lose my sense of direction

You are so much wiser and I'm used to stretching things out so long
You possess more wisdom than me, and I often prolong situations
