i don't mind

• the decemberists şarkısı.
  
  truly, with his thorn in your side
  and you don't know why
  julie dips her toe in the tide
  and she don't know why
  no, she don't know why she got
  all dolled up for a suicide
  and when the stage lights dimmed on the fading scrim
  it was morning before the cheering died
  
  is it too late to tell you that i don't mind?
  
  king george in imperial robe
  and a lazy eye
  knelt down as the semaphore broke
  on his tawdry bride
  but we don't know why he got
  all stressed out on the motherland
  with his t.v. sets and his fighter jets
  and the royal ubiquitous handycam
  
  is it too late to tell you that i don't mind?
  
  here's you with your mom on your back
  going into the woods
  she's so proud that you're staying on track
  like a good son should
  but you don't know why you got
  all choked up when you said goodbye
  and you can hear her still when the nights are still
  all crying out for calamine
  
  is it too late to tell you that i don't mind?
  
  is it too late to tell you that i don't mind?
