One Less Thing Lyrics - Girlysound Tape 2 - Liz Phair

I took my dog to the vet today 

He gave her a shot and put her away 

And when I got home and got ready for bed, I realized what I'd done 

And that's one less thing on my mind 

I left the man I'm in love with behind 

I moved to Chicago and told him I'd write 

But now when I wake and I see the wrong face I realize what I've done 

And that's one less thing on my mind 

Did you think that I knew what I was doing 

When I said that I had to grow up on my own for a while? 

Now I'm dog-less and loveless and cold in a midwestern winter 

If I'd known what I was doing I sure as fuck wouldn't be here 

Now I like to think that I like to learn from mistakes 

But I've made that error in judgment one too many times 

And I'm not the wiser and sure not the wealthier 

I wish to God that I had've been healthier mentally 

When I decided to make up my own mind 

But that's one less thing that takes up my time
