Jonathan Coulton - Good Morning Tucson lyrics

<b>Good Morning Tucson</b> by <i>Jonathan Coulton</i><br />It's still so dark because it's

Still so early and the

Chipper little girlie at the front desk doesn't mind at all

These phony living rooms and

Fake plants are killing me

This bad coffee's filling me with equal parts joy and rage

Put my makeup on and crack in half

I choke back a laugh

Find the camera with the red light

Good Morning Tucson!

The lights come on and so I smile wide and say

Good Morning Tucson!

I throw to you before I throw the rest away

When I was coming up I

Got the donuts which means

I got the donuts that I wanted

There was no young punk

To steal my jelly glazed

And I am still sort of amazed that you can be born in the nineties

When I don't like what they talk about

I take the earpiece out

But they just cue me through the window

Good Morning Tucson!

The lights come on and so I smile wide and say

Good Morning Tucson!

I throw to you before I throw the rest away

While they do the weather I pretend I'm writing something

But I'm really far away

Really far away

I keep my smile warm in case they turn the camera on

'Cause now I have something to say

I have something to say

The camera's melting but I

Just keep going, it's been a

Pleasure knowing you I wish you all the best of luck

When the prompter dies I'm

Comfortable winging it I'm

Practically singing it, the song that tears the world apart

Through the smoke beyond my parking space

I see my giant face

On the billboard by the highway

Good Morning Tucson!

The lights come on and so I smile wide and say

Good Morning Tucson!

I throw to you before I throw the rest away
