50212With every swell and every waveThe riptide carries me away out to sea And in a sheltered cove, I found The pretty people hanging out there for me Picture perfect, memographic Money market, what you gonna do? Beg and borrow, the old straight and narrow Supple tomorrow, 50212 Like someone whistling in the dark Got used to living in my car for a while Going places, wearing braces Remember faces, all you gotta do Go to college, gather knowledge Get acknowledged, 50212, 50212, 50212 Silently watching as she sleeps Brushing the hair from off her cheek And she says Mind your manners, I'm growing backwards The seven wonders, I'll be black and blue Touching, feeling, and heavy breathing Oh, what you using? 50212 Forget about it, mmh, but I doubt it Got around it, see that point of view I can't remember the private number The unknown caller, 50212, 50212, 50212 |
