You're at my house you're in my clothes No one knows, knows. You're in my head like a dumb song It just goes, goes. You're on my lips and on my face And it shows, shows. I should be happy and I am I want you close to me. You're like a simile, like totally. You're like a deep sleep to an insomniac. You're like the ocean floor, vast and cool. You're like a swimming pool, hypnotic blue. And I fell in, so take my hand, and swim around. Kiss me hard, until I drown. I wanna be your shirt, So I can hug you while you work. I wanna be your wife, So you can beat me every night. You're like a toothpick to teeth, mintiful. You're like a metaphor for something else. You're like a teen flick soundtrack. You're sharper than a ginsu thumbtack, you cut my can. So say you're mine, I'll give you back. Take these hands, they'll squeeze back. I wanna be your shirt, So I can hug you while you work. I wanna be your wife, So you can beat me every night. I wanna be your girl, So you can hold me like your girl. I wanna be your shrink, So I'll get paid to watch you think.
I have always loved this album!! Never got to see them in the 90's but flew to Chicago to see them for the reunion and it was mind-blowing. I didn't know they had that many fans. Going to see them play in Austin this weekend!!
Yup. Hated this album when i first heard it. (my all time fav. wuz 24 hr. revenge therapy...) But a year later, it joined the rest of 'em as beautiful and relevent in my eyes. It was SO much more polished than I was used to hearing from them. Threw me off. But I realize now that Blake was growing. If there was no Dear You, there would be no JTB. (and what a shame that would be...)
Michael McTighe I can definitely see how this evolved into JTB and I’m happy that it did. Orange rhyming dictionary and perfecting loneliness are one of my favourite albums of all time!

You're at my house you're in my clothes
No one knows, knows.
You're in my head like a dumb song
It just goes, goes.
You're on my lips and on my face
And it shows, shows.
I should be happy and I am
I want you close to me.
You're like a simile, like totally.
You're like a deep sleep to an insomniac.
You're like the ocean floor, vast and cool.
You're like a swimming pool, hypnotic blue.
And I fell in, so take my hand, and swim around.
Kiss me hard, until I drown.
I wanna be your shirt,
So I can hug you while you work.
I wanna be your wife,
So you can beat me every night.
You're like a toothpick to teeth, mintiful.
You're like a metaphor for something else.
You're like a teen flick soundtrack.
You're sharper than a ginsu thumbtack, you cut my can.
So say you're mine, I'll give you back.
Take these hands, they'll squeeze back.
I wanna be your shirt,
So I can hug you while you work.
I wanna be your wife,
So you can beat me every night.
I wanna be your girl,
So you can hold me like your girl.
I wanna be your shrink,
So I'll get paid to watch you think.
stop hating on this album. none of you could ever make anything like this.
yusss! ^^^ riptits fortified
Amen
You don't know what I could make
Go ahead and prove them wrong
🙌
one of my favorite Jawbreaker songs...no joke.
I couldn’t imagine being a jawbreaker fan back when it was taboo to like dear you. This is one of the best albums 2nd wave emo ever produced.

Life means. Be the best at what you. This. Is. Passion. Not the pit.

You know this is the best band ever, right?
Mr reverend,. you just read my mind, this is sick as awesome!!!.
I fucking LOVE this song
Pssh Dear You is their best album, hands down. "Chemistry" alone is worth the album.
ducksducks I like 24 Hour Revenge Therapy better.
Chemistry is my favorite
This track didn't even make the album. What does that say about one of the greatest albums of the '90s?
This song makes me happy! :)
"i wanna be your wife, so you can beat me every night"
lol. i love jawbreaker.
sick as in amazing
Should’ve been the single instead of Fireman
this song is sick.

I would of liked this album more if this song Shirt was on it originally.
🤞🤞🤞🖤🖤🖤🤞🤞🤞
this song is only on the re release?
live(4-30-96) version is better i think. still great tho.
Sharper than a Ginsu thumbtack
Is this an outtake?
3 people don't want to be Blake to be their wife...
Oh you anti-fas
