lyrics

I hope you’re happy.

I hope you’re where you want to be.

I hope you’re happy

Just not happier than me.

I heard you had another baby.

How old’s the first one?
He must be three.

I’m happy for you
‘cause when we broke up,

you said you wanted a big family.

I heard you sold your old apartment

I heard you got a decent price

I heard you guys moved out to Brooklyn

I forget which neighborhood but I heard it’s nice.

I hope you’re happy

I hope you’re where you want to be

I hope you’re happy-

Just not happier than me.

Will you say hi to your sister for me?

I feel bad we didn’t stay in touch

It’s really a shame

Because I always liked her very much.

I found a picture from when we first moved in together.

I forgot your hair was so long.

We looked happy then and it made me realize

How well you and I actually used to get along.

Do you remember when we took ecstacy and we stopped fooling around because we wanted to call your grandmother?

Remember when I ate that sandwich that was on the floor of the van and you said that was the thing that made you fall in love with me?

Do you remember when we drove out to Death Valley at night in that rented convertible, and the moon was so bright that we drove without the headlights on and there was nothing on the radio so we were singing Bruce Springsteen songs and you were singing Born to Run and when you got to the part where he says “Will you walk with me out on the wire” I don’t know why but we both started crying?

I hope you’re happy 

Hope you’re where you want to be.

I hope you’re happy. 

Just not happier, happier than me.
Just not happier, happier than me.
Just not happier
than me.

"Jesus H Christ and the Four Hornsmen of the Apocalypse has a crusading horn section, some fine guitar playing, and a growing catalogue of sharply satirical power pop."- The New Yorker

-Pitchfork
