lyrics

i've got fingers & hands
I've got a head for a heart
i got a new pair of pants
i got a party to start
you hold hands with balloons as we walk in the park
i'm getting tired of you & your clever remarks

i like kissing boys in the dark
on the couch
on the weekend
in my girlfriend's house

i got a paper bag on my head
with a smile painted on in red

there's a cut in my mouth that i can't help but tongue
i'm 20 but i feel so goddamn young
i guess you gotta be drunk to be grown up
i'll throw up
& i'll throw us to the sharks

i like kissing boys in the dark
on the couch
on the weekend
in my girlfriend's house

my head's my home
my body a tomb
