The Cape Video (MV)

Before you leave the cape
Was it everything you asked for
When you wrote to ask if you could stay?
A weekend is a time bomb
A countdown on an iPhone
An oldies station dedication day

Oh my God, it's really too bad you came
We swore we'd stop, but it's the only thing to keep us entertained

I came up in July
Stayed in your apartment
Wondered what we'd have the nerve to try
I'd say watch a movie
But you threw out your TV
The only resolution you stuck by

Oh, I know, you've never been so ashamed
Take heart, make love, just do it like you know my middle name

Stay bright, learn what it's like
Kissing a Christian under her eyes
Stay soft, cute when you cough
What do you whisper when you get off?
Stay slight, you've got a type
I gotta practice, what do you like?
It's late now, figure it out
It's never too late to change

It's really not so far
You didn't have to walk me
But grace is still a virtue
And we've got ours to burn through
We're the only ones we have to blame
