Jenny Lewis
Salute My Shorts!
[Verse 1]
When we broke down
In that small mining town
I was ready for quitting
My guard was down
It was summer all day
In your dad's Chevrolet
And so, we decided to stay

[Chorus 1]
And we want spectacular views
If we're to stay for the weekend
And you swear there'll be no bad news
If we stay, if we stay without looking back

[Verse 2]
We'll take a small private room
With a window please
If it opens, that's fine
To let in the breeze
We've been waiting all year
For someone to just say
"Everyone fucks up, it's gonna be okay"

[Chorus 2]
And the prop planes they fly overhead
You can hear them returning
And maybe it's all in my head
But I'll save my complaints for tomorrow
[Verse 3]
And when you got sick, I was sad for some days
But I'm feeling much better, I just sleep it away
Now it's just like, we never was
Some things go bad just because

[Chorus 3]
And the freeways, they go coast to coast
They've taken away all my good friends
And I don't care if you're broke
You can't stay here tomorrow

[Chorus 4]
And the dreams have come back again
But this time I'm not just watching them
It's me as pilot instead
And I land the plane all by myself

[Outro]
No, you can't stay here tomorrow
