Early to the party
You're the first one there
Overdressed and underprepared
Standing in the kitchen
Stressing out the host
Pulling teeth 'til anyone arrives

Excuse yourself and smoke a cigarette outside
There's three new faces coming up the drive
Exhale nervous greetings as they shuffle past
Can't he ever show up on time?

Bird on the wall
Catch her calling all the shots
Catch her tying you in knots
Won't let you leave

What happened to manners
I guess he's had a few
He's talking shit
He never thinks of you
So bite your lip and watch him walk off with his friends
Leaving you all alone once again

Bird on the wall
Catch her calling all the shots
Catch her tying you in knots
Won't let you leave
