Fucked For Life Lyrics & Chords By Dirty Projectors

In the gray mesh shorts of my alma mater
And in the see-through teal of the chlorinated water
My salmon pink body like a marlin that was lucky
a series of futures
that’ll maybe never stick
I can’t imagine what ordered fortune might tell me off like this
A little glazed wave with a right hand that cups the silt that counts all my days
And all the punks with their bikes and their MFAs are getting legible, eligible
And at that moment when my forlorn body leaned into hers
I say it now and you won’t believe me but I knew I was fucked for life
