Bad Wine And Lemon Cake Lyrics - Amanda Palmer Goes Down Under - Amanda Palmer

I have a little house 

Close to town, but not to the city 

Far from home, but near my family 

No water views, but so close to the sea 

I see 

This is how my little life could be... 

And I'm filling it with things 

Like furniture that I find on the street 

And all the special things I'd like to eat 

Pictures of people that I'd like to meet 

I'll meet them when I'm orbiting the world...

...And it's so pretty... 

...And so lonely... 

My little love affairs 

Are all scheduled 'round the TV guide 

And my sex life has all been plagiarized 

In an attempt to meet a harsh deadline... 

I'd like to rent-a-wife 

Then rent a husband to keep her for life 

The three of us, we could be so happy 

Them with each other, me with company 

I'll see them off on a flight around the world... 

...And it's so pretty... 

...And so lonely... 

I could just die 

I might just die 

I could just die 

I might just die 

Photos 

...And at my funeral 

They will say "Tom, he was such a nice guy, 

He went too early, but he went in style." 

They'll play my music and then they will cry 

They'll have a little wake 

They'll drink bad wine and they'll eat lemon cake 

And my mother's little heart will break 

And she will say: 

"Wait! There must be some mistake, 

He can't be dead 

Take me instead!" 

Oh, but I'm not dead 

They tell me I'm not dead 

They say that I'm not dead 

And I won't die for some time... 

I'm in my little house 

Just writing little songs to pass the time 

Which incidentally is seven forty-nine 

So don't you worry, I'm completely fine 

I'm fine 

Don't you worry, I'm completely fine 

I'm fine 

Don't you worry, I'm completely fine 

I'm fine 

Don't you worry, I'm completely fine 

I'm fine, I am just so f*cking fine
