19 is not the age of reason
I didn't have a reason
For setting you free

I've seen
A lot of love go sour
But that's not our love
Y'see the problem was

I was a debater
Was not a stoner nor an inline skater
Was not a player nor a player hater
I was just a bookworm on a respirator
Who's to say that's wrong

I was in the chess club
Didn't have a swimming pool much less a true love

I was in a real bad way
When you turned the power on
And you made me feel for all the world
Like I was the king of all the world

I was on a window ledge
When you came upon me there
Everything was upside for the moment

When you explode into the room,
all I can smell is your perfume;
and the cigarette jazzing up the atmosphere.

You think it's fine, I know it's broke.
You think it's all some kind of joke,
but how can I laugh when I'm locked up in here?

Rollerskate skinny and the terrible two's
How can you have everything and nothing to lose?
You and nobody see eye to eye
You're gonna wake up with a ghost instead of a guy

Bulletin board on the wall of a church
Soaking up the city from a top-step perch
You're gonna break down on a midnight date

Verse 1
The new kid, he’s got money
The money I deserve
He’s got the goods but he’s not good for his word
I should be rolling in it
I've been a working stiff
As for the justice no one knows where it went

I'm gonna tend a bad fire until you come around
I'd sing you real live love songs
If I could get the feeling down

I want to make you happy but the devil's out my way
So I'll just pack up everything
Roll it out and up the devil's pay

Well the hour is late for a visit on a whim
Well the hour is late for a quiet drunken talk
I don't begrudge you the anger in your voice
No I don't begrudge you anything at all

'Cause I know that the time is scarce in Laredo with your friends
You're on holiday, on a bender, in a daze
You find all nite food in a diner full of noise
