Post-Coital Depression
(B. Kearns)
I could not believe my ears
when you told me you’d come home
for the promise of some smoke and wine
when we were alone

I got a little scared at first
the rest was really fun
but I awoke alone
with you already on the run

CHORUS
Now every time I think of you
I think I wanna cry
The more I think of what we did
the more I wanna die
I wish we could return
to when I chased you around
post-coital depression has really got me down

I loved it when we made love
I loved the love we made
for a night with any other girl
that night I wouldn’t trade

I never once closed my eyes
pretending you were someone else
I was too astounded
you could love somebody like myself

CHORUS

For me it was an avalanche
for me it was a game
For me it was an avalanche
for me it was a game
For me it was an avalanche
for me it was a game

CHORUS

We inherited this song from our colleague in The Hormones (“you can keep the donut/we’ll take the hole”), the first band in which Shadoobi and Cisco played. It’s one of four we did written by the Tabloid Baby himself (http://www.tabloidbaby.com). As to the tempo at the end: Don’t try this one at home. You might hurt yourself. We frequently did.
