"Pure Sticker Shock" lyrics - THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS

The thing about fortune
It does no favors
And it's form fitting
You barely know that it's there

In a pure sticker shock
At my price cut by half
But you say I look happy
And I start to laugh
You see the problem I have

The heart is always here
You forget it's beating
The heart is always here
You forget it's beating
Like a gift that you didn't remember giving
The gift you never remember giving

In a pure sticker shock
At the price on my head
In a pure sticker shock
Thought I'd get more for it

In a pure sticker shock
I gave up on eloquence
And if that's what I said
It's probably what I meant
You see the problem, my friend

The heart is always here
You forget it's beating
The heart is always here
You forget it's beating
Like a gift that you didn't remember giving
The gift you never remember giving

In a pure sticker shock
At the price on my head
Like the apple with only a bite out of it
It's a hard sell, my friend

The heart is always here
You forget it's beating
The heart is always here
You forget it's beating
Like a gift that you didn't remember giving
The gift you never remember giving

In a pure sticker shock...
