You Too - Mandibles

Lead vox: Estaphonia
Lyrics, backing vox, instrumentals, mix: Cybronica
Good vibes: Truth (get well soon!)
Contrafacted song: Don’t Stop Believin’ by Journey

I’ve been waiting for this moment it seems all year
With anticipation; Friday’s finally here
Popcorn in hand, date on my arm,
Hand the ticket to the teller with a hint of charm

What came next, I recall with dread,
He said, “Enjoy the movie,” And I said,

“You too” ...
“You too”
These words are haunting me
“You too”
A disturbing memory
“You too”
It’s done, I can’t unsay
These words that ruined my whole day.

The movie over, my head held low,
We’ve decided that the diner was the place to go
The promise of mozz sticks gives my spirit a lift
As we chatter with the waiter at the end of her shift

When she brings us our food, I wasn’t thinking ahead,
She said, “Enjoy your meal,” And I said,

Chorus

Bridge
The night is ending much too soon
We sit in my car by the light of the moon
Conversation is halting; something is wrong,
Words fall flat on the blade of my tongue
You say it’s late, better get going
We drive in silence, headlights glowing.
Stop at your house, walk you to your door,
Lean in for a kiss, but you want nothing more.

With what happens next, I’d rather be dead,
You said, “Drive home safely,” and I said,

Chorus
