You're an Asshole, I Can't Stand You (and I Want a Divorce)

by Orville Peck

Lyrics
I woke up this morning in our king-sized bed
Every day you get further away
The silence is louder than what you ain't said
But I hear the words you can't say
You're goin' down on love, and everybody knows
Ride the high country wherever you go
If you wanna fly, grab hold of the reins
Get back in the saddle, ride away on your horse
You're an asshole, I can't stand you, and I want a divorce
The light is fading, and the day is gone
Nothin' much left in this one-light town
You borrow your freedom on the back of the dawn
You're making me look like a rodeo clown
You're goin' out on me and everybody knows
You'll come out smellin' like a rose
Tell me goodbye, grab hold of the reins
Look, I don't care if it was 40 years ago when you won a high school spelling bee
What are you even talking about?
Not everybody can spell hippopotamus
That's at least something you can hang on to
I can't even understand you with that thing on your face
Margo, you sure do take the "O" out of Country
And you put the "L" in stupid
Get back in the saddle, ride away on your horse
You're an asshole, I can't stand you, and I want a divorce
Get back in the saddle, ride away on your horse
You're an asshole, I can't stand you, and I want a divorce
