Lyrics

Goodbye Corrine, Goodbye Corrine

She went to parties, she collected all the cans
She said "If I embarrass you, well, that's just who I am"
"My school and meds are paid for by my disabilities"
"It's not enough to get along... are you listening to me?"

Goodbye Corrine, Goodbye Corrine

She took to stealing, her boyfriend taught her how
She hid the money all around the house
She grabbed her coat and pills and as she turned around she said
"The cops are coming so I am checking out"

Goodbye Corrine, Goodbye Corrine

And when she's drinking, she's flying
When she comes down everybody feels her fall
I try to help her as she's sinking
It's quite clear that my back's against the wall

So...Goodbye Corrine, Goodbye Corrine

She stumbled home at dawn no lesson to be learned
Screaming "Life steals from me... I steal in return!"
When she was arrested they took her down
Gave her just one phone call but I could not help her out.

Goodbye Corrine, Goodbye Corrine
Goodbye Corrine, Goodbye Corrine
