Nearly Midnight, Honolulu - Neko Case
Hey little kid
That I saw at the bus stop one day
It was nearly midnight in Honolulu
We were waiting for the shuttle
To take us to the aeroplane
When your mother said
Your mother said
Like I couldn't hear her
She said "Get the fuck away from me
Why don't you ever shut up
Get the fuck away from me "
Oh
Well I just wanna say that it happened
Cause one day when you ask yourself
"Did it really happen "
You won't believe it but yes it did
And I'm sorry
And I'm sorry
Cause it happens every day
They won't believe you
When you tell them
They won't believe you
When you say
"My mother she did not love me "
"My mother she did not love me "
No no no
Some days you'll feel like a cartoon
And people will rush to make excuses for you
You'll hear yourself complain
But don't you ever shut up
Please kid have your say
Cause I'll still love you
Even if
I don't see you again
