lyrics

Diner food is filling
Bathe at Flying J
Meet the finest people, pray they lead you astray
Everybody's different,
But we all bleed the same
Pour your heart for strangers
Until nothing is in vein

I won't be here waiting for you
I won't play pretend
These last 7 years are the best I've ever had

Green is for envy
Your ex looks like the hulk
Package all that jelly and sell it off in bulk
No sense scribing scripture
Not everything will land
Have a taste of everything then spit in my hand

I won't be here waiting for you
I won't play pretend
These last 7 years are the best I've ever had

You could make a movie
That's sad and drab and dry
Treat it like old yeller and shoot it while you cry
You could harbor hatred
Or sail your sea of tears
Live a life divided for ten or fifteen years

I won't be here waiting for you
I won't play pretend
These last 7 years are the best I've ever had

Spell it out babe
What you mean to me
I said you'll always be mine
Spell it out babe
What you mean to me
I said you'll always be mine

Need to find a reason? Spell it out
Changing like the seasons? Spell it out
Are they trying to keep you down and out?
Take your time and figure. Figure it out
What do you need? Eye to eye, we got it. Yeah!

M is for married
A for always yours
C is for caring but only when ignored
K for kingdom coming
S for spell it right
Macks-imize your output till the end of your life

You may fall in love,
Not everybody can
But London hasn't called so
Get back in the van
It's a game of leapfrog and
We've been jumped before
Just keep the pace. In time,
We'll settle score

The mindset's prehistoric
Like a lizard or a roach
Blow the world to high hell
We'll crawl out from the smoke
We can take a licking
Like Timex or my knees
The clock is always ticking
So make like a tree

The benefits are shitty and
You may never sleep
There's mold in the seatbelts
And sweat stains in the seats
The carpet might know English and
Showers may be scarce
The outfits may be dated
But who's going to care?

Are you second guessing? Or
Afraid of all your friends?
Addicted to disaster?
Then please take my hand

I won't be here waiting for you
I won't play pretend
The next thousand years will be the best you've ever had
