I Support Your Flings!
Barrett Riggins
GENRE [Verse]
All your exes circle you like vultures
Hungry for a love song you won't hum
Maybe they were raised in unromantic cultures
Far from any radio or musical theatre numbers
All that fluff is stuffing in your ballgown
Love is coded in your DNA
Maybe they will never hear their Rapunzels call down
Yeah it sounds cliche
[Chorus]
But don't ever change your tune
It is good for a healthy heart to swoon
And if ever you need to slouch
I'm the cynic beside you who will vouch for you
And every fling
For love, oh love, is an enviable thing
It's an enviable thing
[Verse]
Former flames strike love afflicted poses
And strain to see the woman you've become
First they cursed your name but now they send you roses
Care of some uncaring men with permanent reservations
You can always poke around the creases
Find extra coins or junk food in your heart
May your expectations rest in Reese's Pieces
Never too late to start
[Chorus]
Yeah I want you to sing your song
Understanding that few will sing along
And if ever you're in a skid
Know your love has gone further than their apathy did
[Bridge]
Carrying a torch around
And lighting up the place (yeah)
As the memory burns
The lonely take turns
Just saving face (ooo)
[Chorus]
Everybody wants a meager portion
Nobody wants to die a grouch
But even when I'm grouchy, I will vouch for you
And every fling
Each rendezvous
And promise ring
The things you do
That ease the sting
Of unrequited love
Your love is an enviable thing
Yeah an enviable thing
It's an enviable thing
All your exes circle you like vultures
Hungry for a love song you won't hum
Maybe they were raised in unromantic cultures
Far from any radio or musical theatre numbers
All that fluff is stuffing in your ballgown
Love is coded in your DNA
Maybe they will never hear their Rapunzels call down
Yeah it sounds cliche
[Chorus]
But don't ever change your tune
It is good for a healthy heart to swoon
And if ever you need to slouch
I'm the cynic beside you who will vouch for you
And every fling
For love, oh love, is an enviable thing
It's an enviable thing
[Verse]
Former flames strike love afflicted poses
And strain to see the woman you've become
First they cursed your name but now they send you roses
Care of some uncaring men with permanent reservations
You can always poke around the creases
Find extra coins or junk food in your heart
May your expectations rest in Reese's Pieces
Never too late to start
[Chorus]
Yeah I want you to sing your song
Understanding that few will sing along
And if ever you're in a skid
Know your love has gone further than their apathy did
[Bridge]
Carrying a torch around

The lonely take turns

Of unrequited love
Your love is an enviable thing
Yeah an enviable thing
It's an enviable thing
