Voice on Tape
Jenny, um, I don't know if that's you, because that didn't sound like you, but you know, it's a funny world where machines could replace people. Whoever that was, tell Jenny that Regina called her. And P.S. I can't believe what he did
All the evidence points in one direction
Says I don't need you physically around
I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else
Thing that I had but I dropped
All that I had but I dropped
I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you inside out
I was hoping you could keep me company for the ride home, but it's okay if you're sleeping
I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else
And you say that I don't have this down
I've been practicing out loud
I just wanted to call to say hi, and um, I think I might bring Marissa and Tracy up to Topeka
I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you back and forth
All the evidence points in one direction
Says I don't need you physically around
I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else
Thing that I had but I dropped
All that I had but I dropped
I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you inside out
I was hoping you could keep me company for the ride home, but it's okay if you're sleeping
I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me

I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you back and forth
I've got your voice on tape

I've got your words in me
I've got your words in me
I want you back and forth
Thing that I had but I dropped

I don't want anyone
I don't need anyone else

I've got your words in me
I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I've got your words in me
I've got your voice on tape

Eet by Regina Spektor
It's like forgetting the words to your favorite song
You can't believe it
You were always singing along
It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can't remember
You try to feel the beat
Eet, eet, eet, eet
Eet, eet, eet, eet
You spent half of your life trying to fall behind
You're using your headphones to drown out your mind
It was so easy, and the words so sweet
You can't remember
You try to move your feet
Eet, eet, eet, eet
Eet, eet, eet, eet
Someone's deciding whether or not to steal
He opens the window just to feel the chill
He hears that outside a small boy just starting to cry
'Cause it's his turn but his brother won't let him try
It's like forgetting the words to your favorite song

You can't remember, you try to feel the beat
You can't believe it
You were always singing along
