Don't let the chlorine in your eyes blind you to the awful surprise
I think I lost it, let me know if you come across it
Time is like a clock in my heart
Walk beside me, not behind me. Feel my unconditional love
You always knew you were tired, but then where are your friends tonight?
It's too late tonight to drag the past out into the light
This may come as some surprise, but I miss you
I walked home smiling—I finally had a story to tell
I kissed you in a style Clark Gable would have admired. I thought it classic
If you knew how I felt now, you wouldn't act so adult now
Under the kitchen light, you still look like dynamite
The culture is lit, and if this is it, I had a ball
I was dreaming when I wrote this, so sue me if I go too fast
I never wanted to be your weekend lover
Sometimes I wish for a mistake
Downstairs the party is going full swing. The people we came with haven't noticed a thing
It’s not safe to go out, it’s not right to stay home. Listen, my advice is to carry a gun
And anyways I'd rather listen to Coltrane than go through all that shit again
Up to Lexington, 125—feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive
Whoever brought me here is gonna have to take me home
I hear you knockin', but there ain't nobody home
What's practical? What's logical? What the hell, who cares?
I don't know what I knew before, but now I know I want to win the war
Tell me something that you mean, not just what comes to mind
I don't know my future after this weekend, and I don't want to
I see you driving sports cars, ain't hitting the throttle, and I'll be down to do a hundred, top down and goggles
Sing me another love song, but this time with a little dedication
You got a look in your eye when you're saying goodbye, like you want to say hi
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need
I am guessing this is a slippery when wet kind of sign. It does, however, remind me of last week when I went to Disneyland. They renovated Space Mountain (way different from when we were kids). Metal music played throughout the ride and odd visuals streaked through what is to be a sky. I was so concerned my daughter would have a seizure (she is on anti-epileptics)! I thought the damn thing would never end. It was total chaos and fear. Finally, it ended. I was so freaked out by the end of the ride, I tripped and fell on my face while trying to disembark. Perhaps that sign should be hanging on the walls of Space Mountain, but with the character falling forward, rather than backward.
