Lyrics:

I knew an old guy who said true love is death (deaf?)
at the time I thought I misheard
but then he told me that pain will never mend
then he started shouting many dirty words

so I laughed him off "AREN'T YOU HAVING FUN"
but then I started getting scared that I would be like him
dumb enough to think that you would really fit
but all I really found was the worst it's ever been

escape into reality
with a common causality
except for banality
and extreme inhospitality

and the squirrel knew everything
except for what they didn't which was everything
and that's the problem see
but it doesn't matter, because

[chorus]
RABBIT AND SQUIRREL DON'T TALK ANYMORE
RABBIT AND SQUIRREL DON'T TALK ANYMORE
RABBIT AND SQUIRREL DON'T TALK ANYMORE
RABBIT AND SQUIRREL ARE BROKE EVERMORE

"if there's any ever any problem then that's something I can fix"
said the rabbit to the squirrel, what a fool
you try fixing anything when getting pulled into a fix
of mass insecurity and a fear cesspool

now rabbit's sitting here with nothing really gained
except for knowledge that all people are really turds
they'll latch onto you in hopes they'll be saved
but when they ever are? the answer is never

you didn't want just anyone
but you really wanted anyone
so you latched onto the one
who you already had won

now you got a pick-me-up
that you're sure you can't mess up
but it doesn't feel quite right
the relationship isn't tight

all can be repaired
but your partner is impaired so
make sure you declare for
them to be prepared that

they must really change but
no one can really change so
you get really mad
but it doesn't matter because

[chorus]

(now I'm singing words I know you'll never hear)
(now I'm singing words I hope you'll never hear)
(but at least I know I'm free of all the lies)
(but at least I know I'm free of all the time)

(tell me, was I a good goldfish?)
(hope I was, you piece of shi-

rabbit was in love with squirrel
but squirrel was in love with love

rabbit and squirrel don't talk anymore
rabbit and squirrel don't talk anymore
rabbit and squirrel don't talk anymore
rabbit and squirrel are broke evermore
rabbit and squirrel don't talk anymore
rabbit and squirrel don't talk anymore
rabbit and squirrel don't talk anymore
rabbit and squirrel don't talk

(and I'll never let it happen again, no)
(never let it happen again)
(and I'll never let it happen again, no)
(never let it happen again)
