Cryin'

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know why
I am crying

In my car
In my car
listening to NPR
and crying

Story is all about
drilling in Alaska
Sure that's sad and makes me mad
but that's not why
I am crying

Lately it seems I've been too close
to the edge, of crying

So I go
So I go
So I go
to the movies

And even though
the one I pick
is called 'The House of Mirth'
it's a sad one

When Gillian Anderson
dies at the end
guess who'll be crying?

Any little thing can set me off
when I'm cruising in the breakdown lane
and crying

Well maybe
chemistry
can help me out
but I don't think so

No caffine
amphetamine
or glass of gin
will make things better

just a little less
work and stress
should help me out

'cause lately it seems
I've been too close
to the edge, of crying
crying...
