Quit acting so friendly. Dont nod, dont laugh all nicely
Dont think you'll upend me. Don't sigh, dont sip your iced tea
Dont say "it's been a while." And dont flash that stupid smile

Chorus

Interlude thingy - same as intro/verse

verse again
Dont think I've forgotten. You never liked that necklace
So cordial, so rotten. Kiss, kiss, let's meet for breakfast
Don't show up so on time. Don't show up so on time
Don't act like you're so kind
----
Chorus
-----
bridge-no guitar
Don't sit there and play just. So frank, so straight so candid
So thoughtful, so gracious. So sound so evenhanded
Don't be so damn benign. And don't waste my fucking time
----
Chorus
----
End on

| its about a girl who he has broken up with because she wasnt what he thought she was. she acts all nice and rad, when shes actually not. he found out what she was really like in the relationship [eg she is actually a bitch] but she acts so nice infront of everyone. shes a fake trying to be perfect. he just wants a normal straight to the point person. shes not what he thought she was. her acting fooled him in the beginning | |

| I think it's about this girl that he loved for aaggggess and that he tottally idealised and put her up on a pedastal. (sorry, i just woke up, my spelling is crap) anyway, they go out, and then she dumps him. he suddenly realises she's not all he made her out to be, but still can't himself. He knows she's actually horrid, and when they meet up after a while, he finds himself still falling for her. so he just blames her for being too nice. and he says 'don't ask me how i've been' cuz he can feel that she's seducing him again... OK..that was SO not clear. but it is in my head. whatever. | |

| this is my favorite ok go song. "Don't be so damn benign and don't waste my fucking time." that's the best part. i think its about overly nice ex's.... pretty straight forward. | |
