about

This here's a song about me runnin' around after my gal broke up with me. Plus it's got a lotta weird things in it.

lyrics

When you done broke up with me, you sure did bring me down
But I don’t sit at home and mope, I’d rather hit the town
To keep from being lonely, I go out every night
I flirt and date and fool around, but nothing works out right

I made out with Medusa, but had trouble with her curls
I cuddled with Carmilla but she took off chasin’ girls
I really liked Irena but her scratches hurt like hell
I stepped out with Samara, but she stepped back in the well

CHORUS:
I keep seein’ things since you told me we’re through
I keep seein’ things so I don’t feel blue
I keep seein’ things
I keep seein’ things
I keep seein’ things but nothing takes the place of you

I’ve been seein’ lots of things, I take ‘em everywhere
And when we go out strollin’ all the people stop and stare
I see ‘em for a little while but it ain’t mean to be
I love ‘em and I leave ‘em and they do the same to me

I cast a lure for Lorelei, who has the Innsmouth look
I had a go with Grendel’s mom, but she gave me the hook
I snuggled with a shoggoth but they really left me cold
I asked out Baba Yaga but she said I was too old

CHORUS

I’ve been seein’ lots of things since you walked out the door
I’ve seen a dozen creatures and I’ll see a dozen more
They don’t frighten me at all and I will tell you why
These things ain’t half as horrible as when you said goodbye

I had lunch with Lamia, lordy, what a hungry dame
I hooked up with a harpy, but she lived up to her name
I made a pass at Mothra but I don’t speak Japanese
And I just jilted Ginger cuz I couldn’t stand the fleas

I’ll keep seein’ things I’m gonna pitch and woo
I’ll keep seein’ things that’s all I’m gonna do
I’ll keep seein’ things
I’ll keep seein’ things
I’ll keep seein’ things ‘till one of these things takes the place of you
