Claire's Ninth

So she stands and waits
And waits at the school gate
They're late, they come, so dumb
In two cars when they agreed one
And it's gone wild on her birthday

So they go to Joe's
For pizza and ice cream
They sit and stare
And Claire just wants to be 9 and a half
Next year she'll tell them she only wants world peace

But Claire, Claire baby
I wish you knew how this all got twisted
I wish you could see right inside us
Some of this stuff the best of us that we can't get out

What's the point of this?
What's wrong with two birthdays?
It's cool at school
Her friends they all have two birthdays
Aw jeez, he just asked the waitress out on a date on her birthday

But Claire, Claire baby
I wish you knew how this all got twisted
I wish you could see right inside us
Some of this stuff the best of us that we can't get to

Here's the check
They pay with two cards like they've never met
Goodbyes
Outside it's cold in LA

But Claire, Claire baby
I wish you knew how this all got twisted
I wish you could see right inside us

The best of us
The most of us
You're what we were
You're all that's left
It used to be our birthday too
