I went 'uh-huh'
when you asked me if I take it to the bitter end.
heart-broken
it's familiar, a feeling I've felt before.
we're holding hands
in the front row of the old people's home
at the movie show
where have you been?
I'm going it alone
with Jimmy and the biker dudes.
the restless kid inside me wants conversation
to take the place of the one inside his head.
uh-huh.
take me out
or take me on
it's one or the other.
hats off to you
let me take your coat
the coffee's in the kitchen.
i'm home alone
watching for commercials my friends are in.
where have you been?
going it alone
with Jimmy and the biker dudes.
the restless kid inside me wants conversation
to take the place of the one inside his head.
uh-huh.
