Chinese Food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Twenty-two and just out of college Paying rent on an apartment where I didn't eat or sleep Cause I was sleeping with you every afternoon And staying up all night over a tray of crab rangoons And yeah the sex was great But it was just one part of the heaven that was our love The sex was great But for some reason I keep thinking of Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer The core ingredients of our love affair It got complicated but when you peel back all the layers It was all about Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer What's my line and General Tso's chicken Splitting a sampler platter, rolling our eyes at this week's villain Then came lo mein and the dawn that nobody acknowledged The hours never mattered cause there was a deep spell upon us I thought I could do it alone But it only left me with a sick sensation inside I went it alone Just so God would know I tried Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer And both of those things were better when you were there It didn't work out because I thought I was some kind of player Now I'm dwelling on Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer And just like Buffy you were strong and feminine too And just like Angel I got jealous every time that Spike was in view And just like Xander and Willow you believed in me despite my issues And just like sweet and sour sauce you were sweet but not without some attitude And just like the first season you were hard to get into And just like a broken heart you were hard to get into And just like the music industry you were hard to get into And I lived that dream, I was there Yeah you loved me but I didn't care I let you go, how did I dare All I had to do was let that dream continue Seven years and I'm still thinking about you Time has weathered my skin but never my memory Other women have come and gone like the seasons Still I long for a chance to love you once more with feeling Yeah the sex was great I guess I'm paying the price for those moments of true happiness The sex was great Especially when afterward we'd order a plate Of Chinese food and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer No dinner and a movie combo compares With our show on TV and a cookie to be our soothsayer I hope my fortune tells of Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer Oh God oh Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer And the girl I loved running her fingers through my hair I had some demons and unfortunately they betrayed her But I'll never forget Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer As long as I live Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer The simple pleasures of life that were made to be shared I wanna go back but God doesn't grant that kind of prayer So I'll just dream about Chinese food and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
