Lyrics

People Watching

[Verse 1]

My momma told me

If you find some fame

Don't start the cocaine

Yeah, yeah, now

But we could always

Find some mindless ways

To keep entertained

Yeah, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

We've got something

[Chorus]

Don't take much to have some fun

Grab your shades and we'll do some

People watching

Keep all your designer drugs

I just wanna smoke your love

We've got something, people watching us

[Verse 2]

Momma told me

If she consumes your mind

Hold on for dear life

Yeah, yeah, woo

Don't need an island

Or a private plane

To bet to these days

Yeah, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

We've got something

[Chorus]

Don't take much to have some fun

Grab your shades and we'll do some

People watching

Keep all your designer drugs

I just wanna smoke your love

We've got something people watching us

[Bridge]

Play, play, play, the djembe

While we lay and sunbathe

Strangers living out their lives

Place your bets on all them

And I could search to no end

Now you can say, you can say it's all in your hands

[Pre-Chorus]

We've got something

[Chorus]

Don't take much to have some fun

Grab your shades and we'll do some

People watching

Keep all your designer drugs

I just wanna smoke your love

We've got something

People watching us

Don't take much to have some fun

Grab your shades and we'll do some

People watching

Keep all your designer drugs

I just wanna smoke your love

We've got something

People watching us

[Outro]

(Yeah, you can tell we've got something good

Because the people are watching us, us, us, us, us, us)
