Yeasayer - Strange Reunions [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Don't ask me for any favors
And I won't ask how you're doing
Leave me alone
Cause after all
Dealing with you is a nuisance
Ever since I was young I've been wondering this
Why we walk on eggshells around the wholly dimwitted
And if your tongue slips we might have to take to task
With all of our hallowed institutions
Don't ask me for any favors
And I won't ask how you're doing
Leave me alone
Cause after all
Dealing with you is a nuisance
If you could laugh at yourself what difference would it make?
You could ignore dang cartoons and you wouldn't turn into prey
But if distance persists we'll preach to choirs raising high
Well, needless, I will raise a celebration
This feud is getting old
No one is gonna be told to go along
Most of the questions
Have easy answers
Our only chance is let them be wrong
Don't ask me for any favors
And I won't ask how you're doing
Leave me alone
Cause after all
Dealing with you is a nuisance
