lirik lagu ben folds – claire’s ninth
so she stands and waits
and waits at the school gate
they’re late, they come, so dumb
in two cars when they agreed one
and it’s gone wild
on her birthday
so they go to joe’s
for pizza and ice cream
they sit and stare
and claire just wants to be 9 and a half
next year she’ll tell them
she only wants world peace
but claire, claire, baby
i wish you knew how this all got twisted
i wish you could see right inside us
some of this stuff the best of us
that we can’t get out
what’s the point of this?
what’s wrong with two birthdays?
it’s cool at school
her friends, they all have two birthdays
aw, jeez, he just asked the waitress
out on a date on her birthday
but claire, claire, baby
i wish you knew how this all got twisted
i wish you could see right inside us
some of this stuff
the best of us that we can’t get to
here’s the check
they pay with two cards
like they’ve never met
goodbyes outside, it’s cold in l.a.
claire, claire, baby
i wish you knew how this all got twisted
i wish you could see right inside us
the best of us, the most of us
you’re what we were
you’re all that’s left
it used to be our birthday too
