The Longest Goodbye - The Ann & Ben Show

 

The Longest Goodbye

[Verse 1]
The party winds down
We say our goodbyes (goodbye)
It was nice to meet you
Have a good night (let’s hug)
After our hug i move away from you,
But you move the same way too (and now it’s awkward baby)

[Verse 2]
So many things to talk about but why can’t i think of one
It’s not like i don’t know you but why does it feel so wrong
I’ve walked this path many times but why’s it feel so long
My brain says break the tension so i just whistle a song
(Whistle)
That did not help at all
Maybe if i fake a phone call
Maybe if i stare at the ground
Or look all around
Maybe i should make polite sounds

[Chorus]
The longest goodbye is the hardest
How long do i look you in the eye
Are you going that way
What else can i say
Do i have to say goodbye again
Its the longest goodbye

[Dialogue]
See you round
See you round
okay (alright)
this is my bus stop (this is mine too)
oh
wow the weather’s really
so where do you
you go first
it’s okay
no you go first
I forgot what I wanted to say

[Verse 3]
my bus pulls up, i get up,
but she gets up at the same time
and my introvert inside is going AAAAHHH
and there’s nowhere to hide,
once we get on the ride
and i’m starting to get some fishy vibes
please don’t be a talker
please don’t be a stalker
I got an exit plan but i gotta think fast
any more of this torture
i swear, i’m gonna combust
so i say “oh this not my bus”

[Chorus 2]
The longest goodbye is the hardest
Of course we’re sharing the same cab (what are the freakin’ odds)
I’m just counting down till i’m alone
For now i’m doing nothing on my phone
It’s the longest good byeyeyeyeye
Of course he/she’s getting off with me


[Dialogue Rap}
i step in the lift and i say goodbye
but you step in too, now i wanna die
cause it sounds like
“i’m on level 7. you’re on level 7 t-“
“- of course you are.”

well this me
well this is me too
huh, woulda thought
that you live here too
… it’s nice to meet y-

hey are you a creep?
ew. no i just think it’s funny
that we were at the same party
and we knew each other hardly
But who are you?
Okay anyway i’mma hit the hay
hold on a minute i just wanna say, this been way too awkward for an average day
okay, lady, trust me, i’m just going home, this is all by chance,
see i’m all alone,
don’t get it overblown this is not that sus
this was already weird way before the bus
let’s just agree to disagree, it’s a statistical anomaly
okay goodnight
goodnight

[Chorus 3]
so I’m actually an assassin (no way)
i’m something like a top secret spy (wow a name card!)
and this really is your last goodbye
any last words before you die?

 

Surprise I’m also an assassin
It’s crazy how we had the same plan (what the?)
Now this long ass night can finally end -

 

I’ve also got a blow dart (are you kidding)
I made it from your metal straw -

Jokes on you I rig all my straws, I -

<phone rings> 
”Yes Boss”

[Chorus 3]
The longest goodbye is the hardest (it was all my plan!)
I spiked both your drinks from the start (we were both played)
i made you follow each other everywhere
it’s an introvert’s worst nightmare
It’s the longest goodbye

I guess… I guess this is goo-
