lyrics

I think that you were like Lindsay from that old show I liked. I think that you incite a frenzy that sends me running right into your sights. You’d shoot out the lights. The sting was pretty slight.

What did you do when you grew up?

We catch up, get a beer. You tell me things that I don’t want to hear. All those good grades, scholarships, awards and accolades -- the brilliant career of Lindsay Weir has disappeared.

Now if you’ve run aground, it’s cause you should have flown by jet, cause I have always known that you would be a winning bet. Now let me make this clear -- don’t look at me like some lost pet. You’ve got the atmosphere, and anywhere you want to get yourself to yet.

And me, I’ve got this big drumset.
