lyrics

Lyrics:

The cafeteria surprise
Was a 4-track spitting lies
Things were looking good
And only getter better.
I read her record buying guide
And welled up somewhere deep inside
A thought of her and rock n roll
And consummation
Now I feel like a stoned stun gun
And I know that's impossible
If the wait's still on
I swear, I'll get back you.

A sweetheart gesture coincides
With the springtime in her eyes
A dress-up custom built charade
Was almost waning
And if I get too close to you
With lightning rods and paper glue
I might find a simple plan for your attention.

Now I feel like a stoned stun gun
And I know that's impossible
If the wait's still on
I swear, I'll get back you.

So linger on
Your hopefuls half a million strong
Collide tonight.
So linger on
Your hairspray and sentimental songs
Dissolve tonight.
They'll dissolve tonight.
