All Aimee Lately

They're all still on their honeymoon.
Just read the dialogue balloon.
Everyone loves you.
Why should they not?
And I'm the only one who knows
that Disneyland's about to close.
I don't suppose you'd give it a shot--
knowing all that you've got

are cigarettes and Red Vines.
Just close your eyes, 'cause, baby
you never do know.
And I'll be on the sidelines
with my hands tied
watching the show.

Well, it's always fun and games until
it's clear you haven't got the skill
in keeping the gag from going too far.
So you're running 'round the parking lot
'til every lightning bug is caught,
punching some pinholes in the lid of a jar
while we wait in the car

with cigarettes and Red Vines.
Just close your eyes, 'cause, baby
you never do know.
And I'll be on the sidelines,
with my hands tied
watching the show.

And tell me, would it kill you
would it really spoil everything
if you didn't blame yourself?
Do you know what I mean?

Cigarettes and Red Vines.
Just close your eyes, 'cause, baby
you never do know.
And I'll be on the sidelines,
with my hands tied
watching the show.
Watching the show.
