One thing
I came out her for one thing
And that little bitty one thing
Was to forget about you
But I guess I've learned something
That there's never really one thing
Cause pretty quickly one thing
Evolves into two
Or three
Or more
For example
See the light
In the hallway
It was always flickering
Ever since
I was little
It was always flickering
After three days here
It was unbearable
My list grew
Two, fix the light bulb
And one,
forget about you
Drove to town
Bought a bulb
One of those new LEDs
Brought it home
Put it in
But the wires weren't connecting
Suddenly they went on the fritz
My list grew
Three, rewire the ceiling
Two, fix the light bulb
And one,
Forget about you
So I went
To the attic
And to my utmost delight
There it is
Black mold
Killing us slowly each night
And I feel it's my duty to remove it
My list grew
Four, kill the black mold
Three, rewire the ceiling
Two, fix the light bulb
And one,
Forget about you
Yeah but my one thing
Is really just–
I'm not done!
See the tarp
In the hallway
That used to be a gallery wall
Lots of pictures
Super classy
Sad I had to make the call
In scouring for mold I had to take the place apart
Because sometimes to solve a problem, you follow it back to the start
Oh! Who's That?
No one!
It just does that when it rains (chuckle)
When I tried
To rebuild
The wall that I'd taken down
I discovered
Two holes!
Burrowed right into the ground
And I didn't have the heart to kill ‘em so my list grew
But then!
The cement
That I found
To fill in the gaping holes
Wasn't good
It didn't stick
Apparently cement can get old?
In trying to fix one thing I made everything worse
My list grew
Nine, buy new cement!
Eight, take care of this duck I found!
Seven, clean out the pipes for the bathroom and the kitchen
Six, rebuild the wall
Five, keep out the pest!
Four, kill the black mold!
Three, rewire the ceiling
Two, FIX THE LIGHT BULB!
And one,
Forget about you
I think it's lovely
To see you fix up this old house
Because you want it to be
Nice for your family
But I think maybe you're obsessing
Over things you can't control
Hoping to control
Your feelings for–
WHAT?! No, no no no no no no no no no
These things need to get done–
Okay, just– just– just stop moving towards me just
stay on your side of the room Okay? So we can talk this out
(Sigh) No listen! Look listen,
If my Moms are gonna be so nice to have me out here
And respect my need to be alone during this
really insane, crazy, impossible time of my life
The absolute least I could is
You know just– just go around and
And– and–
And... destroy their house
(So you came here
Looking for one thing
And you're saying that one thing
Was to forget about me
All I am asking
Is for you to do the first thing
Which could also be the last thing
That you do with me)
After tonight you'll never hear from me again
–If that's what you want!
Everything we need to fix our marriage is inside this envelope
I'm asking for one chance
(Sigh) We'll do this one thing
It is the first thing
We're doing together
Since–
I found out you were not who i thought you were
(You left without saying a word)
We'll do this one thing
It could be the last thing
