I had a job at the
Corner store gift shop selling
Seashells to tourists and giving directions
Although I didn’t know myself
What is the best place to go
And what is the fastest route
How much is bus fare
Can I walk from here
Say, you’ve got a pretty mouth for someone
So unsure
Me and my friends took our
Driving tests at the same DMV
Licensed for making our world a bit wider
Although we didn’t know it would be the same
What is the best place to go
And what is the fastest route
How much is bus fare
Can I walk from here
Say, you’ve got a pretty mouth for someone
So unsure
I had a job at the
Corner store gift shop selling
Fantasies to strangers and buying one for myself
Although I didn’t know
What is the best place to go
And what is the fastest route
How much is bus fare
Can I walk from here
Say, you’ve got a pretty mouth for someone
So unsure
Being in public, the most exciting thing
Was getting people on streets to notice me
Even though we only craved the attention
Because it was something new, all of the pretense of
Being an adult and making decisions
Knowing what hurting is, being provisional,
Having a secret that never escapes the mouth
And feeling guilty for knowing what hands are about
