Practical Amanda Lyrics - Lonely Avenue - Ben Folds

Who'd look at that dump and see a home? 

Why not move in somewhere easy? 

Urinals where bedrooms ought to be 

Who could be bothered, really? 

You're really good at all that stuff 

The nuts and bolts of living 

Curtains, blinds and kitchen tables 

I've got no time for dates and plans 

No I'm too busy dreaming 

You're the one with the attention span 

You're not the free-wheeler 

Practical, practical 

Amanda 

Saved one life 

And made two others 

Practical Amanda 

Who'd look in your room 

And see someone 

That might be 

Worth redeeming 

Head and heart 

And soul fucked up 

Who could be bothered, really? 

I've got no time for dates and plans 

No I'm too busy dreaming 

You're the one with the attention span 

Practical Amanda 

Practical, practical 

Amanda 

Saved one life 

And made two others 

Practical Amanda
