Track 2 of Ness' debut EP "Working Hours"
Written & performed by Vanessa Nostbakken (Ness Nost)

lyrics

He said to the waitress

“Won’t you come here
I know you’re busy, but I’m sad
I’m finding it hard to connect
With anybody
And your smile makes me feel glad”

He knows they’re not really friends
But he comes in to pretend
It makes him feel like

Less of a Bad guy
Less of a sad guy
Less of a creep


She works every Sunday
Noon to night time
Its her only day off school
Trades her smiles in
For dollars, to keep
Up on her bills, even when the regular loses his cool

She knows they’re not really friends
But she has to pretend
To make him feel like

Less of a Bad guy
Less of a sad guy
Less of a creep

More of a nice guy
Someone she’d like guy
Not the guy he’s known to be

Not a creep, no he doesn’t want to be a creep

She gets off (work) a little later
So he felt like,
he should follow her back home
She could feel another shadow,
It was then then that she knew, she was no longer alone


She knows they’re not really friends
She doesn’t want to pretend
She said “Hey, you seem like kind of a


Bad guy
Kind of a sad guy
Kind of a creep
I know you don’t mean to be

Less of a nice guy,
It’s not alright guy,
Your stepping over boundaries


Even though you don’t mean to be

You always say you don’t mean to be



He said to the waitress…won’t you come here (end)
