Jack's Mannequin - Last Straw lyric

I heard that you went out last night
And you looked beautiful
Just like a bat beneath the moonlight
I stayed home, took a Vicodin
Sometimes it's all that I can do
When I think about the president
How did he become the president?
And I stayed awake for a day or two.
I thought about the world, drank gin and watched the news
And there are some things I'll never understand
Why a country needs a God
And a woman needs a man

And you never write me letters
And you never sent my sweaters
So I could stay warm when I was without you
Without you I don't sleep, just dream

And I scratched these words into a black notebook
I wrote your name on top, I knew you'd never look
And I tried my best to fight the atmosphere
To think the happy thoughts that leave the phone lines clear
I see Arizona stars from here, but Peter Pan is miles away.

And you never write me letters
And you never sent my sweaters
So I could stay warm when I was without you
Without you I don't have a place that's safe from all the monsters
That hide in my head and sing me to sleep, sleep.
This is the last straw, this is the last straw

She said, �And I wont wait for you forever, while you run around like JFK.
We watched that poor girl waste the best years of her life.
And I'll be damned if I am going out, I will not go out that way.�

And you never write me letters
And you never sent my sweaters
So you could stay warm when I was gone
Without you I don't have a place that's safe from all the monsters
That hide in my head and keep me to dawn
I think this is the last straw
