The Narrative


Two dumb kids
In a hot car
They're saying "where we gonna go?
We don't know but it's gonna be
It's gonna be real far"

One of them's saying that he's gonna be a big shot
He's gonna be a millionaire
The other one's gonna get married
Buy a house in the suburbs
And take it from there

Two dumb kids
In a hot car
I used to think
That I could be
A big star

Well lately I am thinking
I'd like to be a millionaire
Or married out in a real nice house
In the suburbs
Anywhere

And now I am very scared
And I am very scared
And I am very scared
And I am very scared

So I dig out holes in the floor
I've done this twice before
I wish it helped me sleep

But now the place looks terrible
And I can never leave
There's no place to put my feet

I know a girl out on long island
While she works she's always smiling
'Cause she knows she might as well

But it isn't where her heart is
And she's gonna be an artist
Just as soon
Just as soon as something sells

And if you see her in the summer
She might look a little younger
'Cause her skin
I said her skin gets pretty tan

But if you wanna take her home
You better really be alone
Because she'll
She'll clean you right out, man

She'll clean you right out, man

And I am very scared
(She'll clean you right out, man)
And I am very scared
(She'll clean you right out, man)
And I am very scared
(She'll clean you right out, man)
And I am very scared
(She'll clean you right out, man)
