Alone at Home - Jonathan Coulton

I am glad to be shopping here with you

I will sit on this chair til you’re through

I will wait with your purse

I won’t wander off and leave it

I am glad to be shopping here with you

And you know I’ll be fine by myself because

I also am alone at home

I’m alone at home

I would love to swing by the candle store

I agree we can always do with more

You just get what you want

And we’ll find someplace to keep it

I would love to swing by the candle store

And you know I’ll make room for your shit because

I also am alone at home

I’m alone at home

No I don’t want you to make it up to me

I just don’t want anyone to see the way we are

When we’re this way

Can we just not make this a thing

We can stop at your parents' on the way

We haven’t seen them at all since yesterday

We can talk about plans

For your cousin’s birthday party

We can stop at your parents' on the way

And you know I’ll pretend to be nice because

I also am alone at home

I’m alone at home

I’m alone at home

I’m alone at home
