Lyrics

Date w/IKEA

The actress is always breaking things The things you made and she took you for And I'm so tired, I'd be lying I hope the prairie buys you more The fitness coast is growing near The shores, they don't stay blond this year That's why the marble lawns stay clear And warm in time I want to stay, but my time is wasting And the magic lands call my name They want to fire a missile launcher But I know I need to stay We all know that by staying here It'll be a good high this year So what's the use to staying there If you've got no use for time? The fitness coast is growing near The shores, they don't stay blond all year The continent moves with growing fears It's all for expensive lawn I want to stay, but my time is wasting The magic lands call my name I want to fire a missile launcher I know I need to stay I know I need to stay and fight the day I know I need to stay and fight the day I know I need to stay I know I need to stay
