Ben Folds/Nick Hornby claire s ninth

So
She stands
And waits
and waits at the school gate
they're late
they come
so dumb
in two cars wheny they agreed one
and it's gone wrong
on her birthday
they go
to Joe's
for pizza and ice cream
they sit
and stare
and Claire
just wants to be nine and a half
Next year she'll tell them
she only wants world peace
But Claire
Claire baby
I wish you knew how this all got twisted
I wish you could see right in side of
In all of this stuff, the best of us
that we can't get it out
What's
the point
of this
What's wrong with two birthdays?
It's cool
at school
her friends
they all have two birthdays
Oh geez,
he just asked the waitress out
on a date on her birthday
But Claire
Claire baby
I wish you knew how this all got twisted
I wish you could see right inside of
In all of this stuff, the best of us
that we can't get to
Here's the check
they pay
with two cards like they never met
Goodbyes
Outside
It's cold in LA
Claire
Claire baby
I wish you knew how this all got twisted
I wish you could see right inside of
The best of us, the most of us
You're what we were
You're all that's left
It used to be
Our birthday too
