Lyrics

The Senator's Daughter

Hockey teams have playoff dreams
Teenage girls read magazines
No one hears the desperate screams of the techno DJ
What does he say?
He say
Sha la la la la la
He say
Sha la la la la la

I'm floating away
On oceans of grey-blue water
I'm rising above
I'm falling in love with the senator's daughter
I'm floating away

On oceans of grey-blue water
I'm rising above
I'm falling in love with the senator's daughter

Crossing guards start traffic jams
Soccer moms drive minivans
No one sees the anchor man on the instant replay
What does she say?
She say
Sha la la la la la
She say
Sha la la la la la

I'm floating away
On oceans of grey-blue water
I'm rising above
I'm falling in love with the senator's daughter
I'm floating away
On oceans of grey-blue water
I'm rising above
I'm falling in love with the senator's daughter
