You won't be happy with me

four months pass...

So when Bruce sings "Baltimore, Jack" he's talking to someone named Jack? "Baltimore Jack" isn't a section of the town?

I think they serve Baltimore Jack on bacon cheeseburgers in New Jersey.

absolutely true. but tonight this lyric "makes me want to kill myself."

(that's another lyric from the song. i'm fine. but like... desperation.... heartache.... approached through the thinnest possible veneer of irony, a way of maintaining dignity... anyone who thinks stephin merritt isn't a good songwriter is wrong)
