Why Do You Have to Put a Date on Everything - Superchunk

You’ve got your muscles in one big knot

Well mine are just loosening

You used to cut me up inside

I won’t let you do it again

Make sure the fringe catches the first time

Make sure the flame catches the first time

Why do you have to put a date on everything?

Can’t you just strike the bell to hear it ring

Thought that your skin would crack, it’s just wrinkling

Why do you have to put a date on everything?

You think that something is turning?

Well it’s not spoiled cause i tried it once

And if it’s all the same to you at this point

You keep your face and i’ll keep the rest

Why do you have to put a date on everything?

Can’t you just strike the bell to hear it ring

Thought that your skin would crack, it’s just wrinkling

Why do you have to put a date on everything?
