Twenty-Five Forty-One

Marshall Crenshaw


Jenny gave us a number 
Jenny gave us a place to stay 
Billy got hold of a van 
and then we moved the very next day 
To twenty-five forty-one, big windows to lay in the sun 
Twenty-five forty-one, big windows to lay in the sun 
We put down the money 
Then we picked up the keys 
We had to keep the stove on all night long so the mice wouldn't
freeze 
I put our names on the mailbox 
and I put everything else in the past 
It was the first place we'd ever had to ourselves 
I didn't know it would be the last 
Twenty-five forty-one, big windows to lay in the sun 
Twenty-five forty-one, big windows to lay in the sun 
Now everything is over 
Everything is done 
Everything's in boxes now 
at twenty-five forty-one 
Things are so much different now 
You could say the situation's reversed 
And it will not be the last time I'll have to be out by the
first 
Twenty-five forty-one, big windows to lay in the sun 
Twenty-five forty-one, big windows to lay in the sun 
Twenty-five forty-one...
