I Miss the Point, I Miss the Point

I usually avoid reverb and echo when I record on the multitracker, but it seemed fitting here, somehow. Ideally, this song should probably be played on an electric, but doing so on this format is a pain. This isn't the most elegant version I've recorded, so I may totally redo it later. I'm just pressed for time this morning.



She was underwhelmed
If that's a word
I know it's not, 'cause I looked it up
That's one of those skills
That I learned in my school

I was overwhelmed
And I'm sure of that one

'Cause I learned it back in grade school
When I was young

She said: "You is funny,"
I said: "You are funny,"
She said: "Thank you,"
and I said: "Nevermind,"

She rolled her eyes
Her beautiful eyes

The point is not the grammar
It's the feeling
That is certainly in my heart
But not in hers

But not in hers
But not in hers
But not in hers
But not in hers

We were talkin' about people that eat meat
I felt like an ass, 'cause I was one
She said: "It's okay,"

But I felt like I just ate my young

She is obviously a person with a cause
I told her that I don't smoke or drink
She told me to loosen up on her way to the L.C.

She skips her classes and gets good grades
I go to my courses rain or shine
She's passing her classes while I attend mine

While I attend mine
While I attend mine
While I attend mine
While I attend

She wrote out a story about her life
I think it included something about me
I'm not sure of that, but I'm sure of one thing:
Her spelling's atrocious

She told me to read between the lines
And tell her exactly what I got out of it
I told her affection had two Fs
Especially when you're dealing with me

I usually notice all the little things
One time I was proud of it, she says it's annoying
She cursed me up and down
And rolled her Rs
Her beautiful Rs

She says I'm caught up in triviality
All I really wanna know is what she thinks of me
I think my love for her makes me miss the point

I miss the point
I miss the point
I miss the point
I miss the point
