[00:09.48]Exhibit A
[00:09.72]We are friends in a sleeping bag splitting the heat
[00:13.56]We have one filthy pillow to share and your lips are in my hair
[00:24.66]Someone upstairs has a rat that we laughed at
[00:28.68]And people are drinking
[00:30.39]And singing
[00:31.44]Van Halen and
[00:32.70]Slayer on a ukulele tear
[00:49.92]Exhibit B
[00:51.39]Well, we found an apartment
[00:53.79]It’s not much to look at
[00:55.74]A futon on a floor
[00:59.52]Torn-off desktop for a door
[01:06.60]All the decor's made of milk crates and duct tape
[01:10.71]And if we have sex
[01:12.21]They can hear us through the floor
[01:16.59]But we don’t do that anymore
[01:23.97]And I lay there wondering, what is the matter?
[01:27.90]Is this a matter of worse or of better?
[01:32.01]You took the blanket, so
[01:34.23]I took the bedsheet
[01:35.58]But I would have held you if you'd only
[01:39.21]Let me Exhibit
[01:50.01]C Look how quaint
[01:51.84]And how quiet and private
[01:54.18]Our paychecks have bought us a condo in town
[01:59.28]It's the nicest flat around
[02:06.21]You picked a mattress and had it delivered
[02:10.26]And I walked upstairs
[02:12.00]And the sight of it made my heart pound
[02:16.29]And I wrapped my arms around me
[02:23.01]And I stood there wondering, what is the matter?
[02:27.42]Is this a matter of worse or of better?
[02:31.53]You walked right past me and straightened the covers
[02:35.61]But I would still love you if you wanted a lover
[02:41.64]And you said
[02:47.28]All the money in the world
[03:02.13]Won't buy a bed so big and wide
[03:07.14]To guarantee that you won't accidentally touch me
[03:09.03]In the night
[03:33.87]Exhibit D
[03:35.22]Now we're both mostly paralyzed
[03:38.16]Don't know how long we've been lying here in fear
[03:44.22]Too afraid to even feel
[03:51.12]I find my glasses and you turn the light out
[03:55.17]Roll off on your side
[03:56.91]Like you've rolled away for years
[04:01.38]Holding back those king-size tears
[04:08.22]And I still don't ask you, what is the matter?
[04:12.60]Is this a matter of worse or of better?
[04:16.68]You take the heart failure
[04:18.93]I'll take the cancer
[04:20.88]I've long stopped wondering why you don't answer
[04:42.09]Exhibit E
[04:43.50]You can certainly see how fulfilling a life
[04:48.21]From the cost and size of stone of our final resting home
[04:59.55]We got some nice ones right under a cherry tree
[05:03.93]You and me lying the only way we know
[05:09.90]Side by side and still and cold
[05:16.95]And I finally ask you, what was the matter?
[05:22.02]Was it a matter of worse or of better?
[05:25.68]You stretch your arms out and finally face me
[05:30.36]You say I would have told you
[05:33.24]If you'd only asked me
[05:35.37]If you'd only asked me
[05:37.44]If you'd only asked me
