Hand-Me-Downs - Lisa Loeb

I know we’re in September

and this is my house

and this is my town

but my clothes are in the case

and I am leaving

don’t tell me what you spent it on you always lie

you always lie

and it’s a decision

I am leaving

we used to say for fun

lets say you lived

and then you did

you were the leader of us all

the perfect fall

you speak to the weak and old picture of me everybody says they wanna be free

and it’s a decision

so I am leaving

the powder’s in the kitchen

the spoon is on the floor

your sister says it’s different now

I don’t believe her anymore

Chorus

and I don’t want your hand me downs

they’re old

they’re all worn out

I don’t wanna hang around

I don’t want your hand me downs

so now I’m in this hotel room

I’m free and droning on but the musi’s way too loud

I wanna skip to the next song

the glass is on the counter

the sheets are on the floor

your sister says it’s not the same

I don’t believe her anymore

Chorus

so you lie yourself to sleep tonight

but you won’t think of me cuz your world revolves around you

or so it seems

or so it seems

and you can’t get off

and I can’t get on yourself is all you see

and I don’t wanna hang around

I don’t want your hand me downs anymore

you speak to the weak and old picture of me everybody says they wanna be free

and it’s a decision

so I am leaving
