"gee golly, pete wentz sure is cool."

"on the drive home/joke about the kid you used to see and his jealousy/breaking hearts has never looked so cool/as when you wrap your car around a tree/your makeup looks so great next to his teeth"

sort of funny, sort of sad and creepy.

"it is not a side effect of the cocaine, i am thinking it must be love" - title on "my heart will always be the b-side to my tongue" that is a bowie line from "station to station".
