Brilliant Mistake - Rhett Miller/Jon Brion[00:00:00]

He thought he was the King of America[00:00:08]

Where they pour Coca Cola[00:00:12]

Just like vintage wine[00:00:13]

Now I try hard not[00:00:15]

To become hysterical[00:00:16]

But I'm not sure[00:00:18]

If I am laughing or crying[00:00:20]

I wish that I could push a button[00:00:22]

And talk in the past[00:00:25]

And not the present tense[00:00:26]

And watch this hurtin' feeling[00:00:30]

Disappear like it was common sense[00:00:32]

It was a fine idea at the time[00:00:37]

Now it's a brilliant mistake[00:00:41]

She said that she was[00:00:52]

Working for the ABC News[00:00:53]

It was as much of the alphabet[00:00:55]

As she knew how to use[00:00:57]

Her perfume was unspeakable [00:00:59]

It lingered in the air[00:01:01]

Like her artificial laughter [00:01:02]

Her mementos of affairs[00:01:04]

"Oh" I said "I see you know him[00:01:06]

Isn't that very fortunate for you"[00:01:08]

And she showed me his calling card[00:01:13]

He came third or fourth[00:01:15]

And there were more than one or two[00:01:16]

He was a fine idea at this time[00:01:21]

Now he's a brilliant mistake[00:01:24]

He thought he was the King[00:01:37]

Of America[00:01:39]

But it was just a boulevard[00:01:41]

Of broken dreams[00:01:43]

A trick they do with mirrors[00:01:45]

And with chemicals[00:01:46]

The words of love in whispers[00:01:48]

And the acts of love in screams[00:01:50]

I wish that I could push a button[00:01:52]

And talk in the past[00:01:54]

And not the present tense[00:01:55]

And watch this lovin' feeling[00:01:59]

Disappear like it was common sense[00:02:01]

I was a fine idea at the time[00:02:06]

Now I'm a brilliant mistake[00:02:09]

I was a fine idea at the time[00:02:14]

Now I'm a brilliant mistake[00:02:17]
