Miss Delaney Lyrics - Everything In Transit - Jack's Mannequin

Finally, I'm letting go of all my downer thoughts 

In no time, there'll be one less sad robot 

Looking for a chance to be 

Something more than just metal 

Now I'm going part time with a film projectionist 

And she's the vinyl queen from my surfer dream 

She likes the Beach Boys more than radio metal 

And she's so good, but, she's no good for me 

Oh, Miss Delaney, what's the matter? 

You waited by the window, I waited by the door 

Oh, Miss Delaney, where's your boyfriend? 

He isn't up in Heaven, so why treat him like he's dead? Like he's 

It's not that everyday 

Everyday is coming up with the green grass 

But the times pass 

When I think of you whenever I'm at dinner 

Finally I've found someone to duel this lonely sea 

I don't spend my nights searching for earthquakes 

Though it's biblical, how fucked my sleep can be? 

But she won't sleep with me 

Oh, Miss Delaney, what's the matter? 

You waited by the window, waited by the window, I waited by the door 

Oh, Miss Delaney, where's your boyfriend? 

No, he isn't up in Heaven so why treat him like he's dead? 

Like he's dead, like he's dead 

From here you can't find everything 

Arin, I would never lie to you 

Oh, Miss Delaney, Miss Delaney, what you sad for? 

Well, you waited by the window and I was kicking down your door 

Oh, Miss Delaney, where's your boyfriend? Where's your boyfriend? 

He isn't up in Heaven so why treat him like he's dead? 

Well, Miss Delaney
