--------------------------------------

were you there?
were you kicking?
alive in aisle 12?
give the girl a century
in boxes of jars
and give away cars
he's motioning for you

there was a band
they were sickening
arousing everyone
p.s. dump your boyfriend
emotional trash
emotional trash
with helium balloons

so then tell me
how the hell did we miss it
bared his ass for all to see
and no one got to kiss it
