Ugly Love - Eels

Dear cousin, I got your letter

It was more than I thought I deserved

Well, she sounds perfect, all I dream of

And I dream about so much it is absurd

But when I get there and she sees me

I’ll be impressed if she does not run screaming

My kind of love is an ugly love

But it’s real and it lasts a long, long time

I had a thought while I was sleeping

And I dreamed about a place for us to rest

Eternity under the old oak tree

But I go too far, I guess

Maybe I’ll think about tomorrow

And maybe I can get her to stay that long

'Cause my kind of love is an ugly love

But it’s real and it lasts a long, long time

And if she finds me so repulsive

She wouldn’t be the first to retch

Well, I decided one day long ago

I was never gonna be the greatest catch

And if she cares about the car I drive

Then she can get in hers the moment I arrive

'Cause my kind of love is an ugly love

But it’s real and it lasts a long, long time

My kind of love is an ugly love

But it’s real and it lasts a long, long time
