about

who is the imagined singer
nick cave

who is the intended listener
semi-available philly men who peruse craigslist personals

ask three questions
what about "not ugly," "close to my age" and "height-weight proportionate" do you not understand? oh, and p.s. "i can host" should not mean the gravely roof of your shared apartment via the fire escape, in the winter.
why oh why why do you feel the need to include a picture of your unattractive penis with your equally unattractive response?
why do i think i'll find my soul mate on craigslist casual encounters?

describe your song in one word
drrrty

lyrics

i might be casting
for love with a fishing pole
i might be flying
blind holding a beggar's bowl

but i don't need that picture
you took of your prick, sir
it's gross
well we both want attention
don't hold that extension
so close

attention men of philadelphia
if you were waiting 'til i fell f'ya
don't hold your breath
why do i think that i can find my
soul mate in responses signed by
fates worse than death

i'm not asking for much
i just want a warm body
just want a proportion
-al man oh my god these
geezers and creepers and beasts
think they found her
not asking for much
just a casual encounter

i might be playing
roulette with a loaded gun
i might be but you'd
think by now i would have won

no i don't want to screw on
your stepmother's futon
or couch
and i don't need to travel
for a roll in some gravel
ouch

attention men of philadelphia
if you were waiting 'til i fell f'ya
don't hold your breath
why do i think that i can find my
soul mate in responses signed by
fates worse than death

i'm not asking for much
i just want a warm body
just want a proportion
-al man oh my god these
geezers and creepers and beasts
think they found her
not asking for much
just a casual encounter

attention men of philadelphia
if you were waiting 'til i fell f'ya
don't hold your breath
why do i think that i can find my
soul mate in responses signed by
fates worse than death
