Lyrics

I’ve Outgrown Kandinsky

I’ve outgrown Kandinsky
And those cheap bubbly wines
Pop music from the ’80s
I do without just fine

I don’t boogie down and
Sing out loud “I’m bad”
When Michael hits the stereo
Today I just feel sad
And Pretty Woman used to be
Among my favorites
But the last time that I checked it
I found it downright sexist

Trekking in Nepal ’s no longer
On my bucket list
Nor is opening a restaurant
Come to think of it

I never thought the day would come
I let my Walkman go
We don’t know what the future brings
But here’s one thing I know

I’m still into you
Baby we’re not through

I’ve outgrown a lot of songs
These days I write my own
I seem to favor minor keys
And strippin’ them to the bone

Higher faster and what have ya
I just don’t see the point
So I will probably never sing
“The Dry Cleaner from Des Moines”

I’m still into you
Baby we’re not through
I’m still into you
Baby we’re not through
