Lyrics (by Pet Lions)
Stay home safely
Symptomatic of aristocrats
By the time you reach thirty-three
Condescending in the heartland
Please come quickly
You've already got the upper hand
Lemonade iced-tea
Bringing back your southern contraband
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another
And the only thing that I can remember
Is that anybody's face would do
Essex Elementary
I found a picture that your brother had
Franklin Road Academy
From your vacation back to Trinidad
Expectation is a luxury
A luxury you never had
Do you want anything to do with me
Or could you meet me at the newsstand
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another
And the only thing that I can remember
Is that anybody's face would do
We could pick a Saturday
And I could meet your sister too
Life is easy
If you never go to summer camp
If you watch enough TV
It'll make you wish you never had
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another
And the only thing that I can remember
Is that anybody's face would do
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat thinking of you
We could pick a Saturday
And I could meet your sister too
Symptomatic of aristocrats
By the time you reach thirty-three
Condescending in the heartland
Please come quickly
You've already got the upper hand
Lemonade iced-tea
Bringing back your southern contraband
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another
And the only thing that I can remember
Is that anybody's face would do
Essex Elementary
I found a picture that your brother had
Franklin Road Academy
From your vacation back to Trinidad
Expectation is a luxury
A luxury you never had
Do you want anything to do with me
Or could you meet me at the newsstand
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another
And the only thing that I can remember
Is that anybody's face would do
We could pick a Saturday
And I could meet your sister too
Life is easy
If you never go to summer camp
If you watch enough TV
It'll make you wish you never had
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat staring at cars from another
And the only thing that I can remember
Is that anybody's face would do
Listening to the same songs
When I was in the backseat thinking of you
We could pick a Saturday
And I could meet your sister too
