Good old dad, he showed his hand He poured his drink on the carpet And outside I was watching the fireworks Burn out above like a card trick
And when we slept you left your bed And ran to the arms of a grown man And all that night you left your light in The back of Vanessa Martin's mom's van
And you still just borrow what you cannot steal You will ask what isn't owed When you find out that none of that is real Come back and dance the night away in dirty clothes
One by one we all moved on While you just clung to your childhood And all that shame you prick your veins with Will never love you like I do
Someone stands to hold your hand down there deep in the barroom All the night look left and right Love, tell me, tell me, where are you?
And you still just borrow what you cannot steal You will ask what isn't owed When you find out that none of that is real Come back and dance the night away in dirty clothes
