lyrics

Everybody wants to date Karen
We've learned the meaning of the word 'cocksure'
The taunts from yesterday's wet mouths
Now weep through the cracks in the floor

Everybody needs Karen
And I should think that even Sir will agree
That the poisoned needle is the sweetest pain
I can tell by the way he looks at me

Everybody wants to date Karen, but not me

Karen says ‘jump’, we say ‘how high?’
And she catches us like a disease
Oh Karen, you're the giant stamping on our world
Oh baby, stop, oh please don't stop
Oh baby, please, please, please, please

Everybody wants to date Karen, just not me

Her heart is a haunted house
Another fool clatters down the stairs
Can we put him back together again?
Our dear boys could have sworn they were men

Everybody wants to date Karen
We live within the space that she creates
Join feverish hands as her body expands
I don't think we'll make it out of this one alive, boys

Because every part of us becomes Karen
How will we ever make do with second best?
Oh darling, we're the angels singing out of key
And you're the devil's music in a short black dress

Everybody wants to date Karen, why not me?
What’s wrong with me?

Her heart is a pond of ice
We whine sweet nothings from beneath
Her private horrorshow
That is of course if she even knows who we are

Everybody wants to date Karen
Is she unaware, or does she just not care?
Everybody wants to date Karen, just not……
