About the Artist
Lyrics
Why do cupids and angels Continually haunt her dreams like memories Of another life Is painted on her shirt in capitals Out on the free, free way, There's only she And the they represented by the lights. We went to the store and bought something great Which samples this song from Washington State. Go, little record, go It is named by some guy named Joe, And the words are the letters of the words said, Electrically played For outer space and those of they who paid. This song is twice occurred, And now it's time to go away on holiday.
