I can feel your goodbye comin′
Like a storm up from the south
The rain′ll splatter at the back door
The wind′ll whistle ′round the house
So it′s you and Howie Johnston
Somebody told me at the store
I guess I′d better get used
To the idea of you
Not around anymore

[Chorus]
And so, I′m doin′ my best to prepare for the worst
And I′d better get use to the hunger and thirst
I gotta find me a potion
To take for the pain
And all you′ve got to lose
Is my last name

I know he′s cute and he′s got money
I ain′t no handsome fancy Dan
In a way it′s sad and kinda funny
You′ll be ok and I′ll be damned
So I best be gettin′ ready
For the bitter nights alone
Sleepin′ on the couch
Wake up starting out
Livin′ life on my own

[Repeat Chorus]

Yeah, all you′ve got to lose is my last name
