Dogwood - Jenny Lewis

The dogwood’s in bloom

Take off your shoes

You cannot choose your family, oh

There’s nothing we can do

But screw

And booze and amphetamines, oh

In the springtime, in the house

I was determined to work it out

Oh, in the springtime, in the house

The neighbors heard us scream and shout

And somewhere a screw got loose along the way

And your manners have gone away

And I believe that there will come a day

I believe that you will chase me away

So they can’t prove

Love is not enough for you

There’s nothing I can do

'Cause I fell in love with you

In the springtime, in the house

I was determined to work it out

Oh, in the springtime, in the house

I never told you I had my doubts

And somewhere a screw got loose along the way

And our manners have gone away

And I believe that there will come a day

I believe that you will chase me away

So that you can prove

Love is not enough for you

You thought I was your muse

But all along it was you

And the dogwood’s in bloom

There’s nothing we can do

But screw, oh
