The Sweater Song-Weezer

At Tempted

So in retaliation...of events that even occured before my slow spiral downward tonight...
I WAS OUT
shopping for OTHERS
all alone on my own
and in retaliation...
(as mentioned before)
I picked out this (Not This exact one-but much like it) sweater on a sale rack for
MYSELF
(I had a cartful of gifts for others...i DID)
(I swear)
...and I am feeling a bit guilty about the selfish purchase for myself
but feeling that I also deserve a $19.99 item of my OWN (H and 17 spent almost $500 on computer crap ya know)
but...get this...
When I get to the counter to check out
The clerk tells me it has a snag...a big snag
"I really don't mind"...I tell her (and myself) "I can fix it"
But she goes ON and ON about how it is SO VERY BADLY DAMAGED AND not able to be fixed
THAT I shrivel up and decline the purchase
I buy only my gifts for
OTHERS
...and I FEEL totally SLighted
over a Silly
Snagged
Sweater

..sigh

"If you want to destroy my sweater...Woah-ah-woah-ah-woah.
Hold this thread as I walk away... As I walk away.
Watch me unravel, I'll soon be naked.

Lying on the floor, lying on the floor
I've come undone.
