**i love and am so proud of this music video we released in 2009, and wanted to post of a version of it without my psycho homemade intro (which seemed like a funny idea at the time). i hope you enjoy!

cant have it all

music and lyrics by jay brannan

applying moisturizer in the microwave window

for the tenth time, he shouldve called me an hour ago

would he be here with flowers if i lived in arizona?

they say theres no love left in the big cities, its kinda true

i guess youll find me coming soon to a small town near you

ill sell my guitar so i can by myself a tractor

fuck this, this cant be my life

i moisturized ten times tonight

why cant i sit down and write,

bring this question to light?

chorus

do you want a lover, or do you want a life?

one hand or the other, the butter or the bread knife?

do you choose winter, spring, summer, or fall?

its driving me crazy that i cant have it all

if these walls could talk, theyd probably cry out for mercy

til im outlined in chalk, ill be romantically thirsty

so i drink and drink from the proverbial time sink

fuck this, this cant be my life

tears flowing in full force tonight

why cant i sit down and write,

bring this question to light?

chorus

do we hold the future, or does it come in peace?

and if its in my hands, are you sure it should be in brittle hands like these?

life, love, and the pursuit of all the things they promised me

can i have all of the above? are the best things in life truly free?

chorus
